New owner here. I'm thinking I might have put too much grease into my intermediate housing. I was reading this could create problems with the seals so was wondering if its possible to remove some of the grease.

Any suggestions? Would temporarily removing the hose that connects to the intermediate housing release pressure by pushing out excess grease?

Don't do anything. If you caused a problem it's too late, but you probably haven't caused a problem. What makes yoi think you have a problem?

Got it. It could be me being paranoid, I was having an issue with the grease gun and lost track of how much I put in.

One pump equals 1CC.

Yeah, from what I understand, if you pumped too much grease in you have already blown out the seals.
