On my 01' 150 Merc o/b. When greaseing the midsection (where the engine pivots for steering) I can only get grease to come thru at small spots at upper and lower locations. Am thinking that I should see grease all around these points.

Anybody know of a way to flush old caked up grease out of this cylinder?

One suggestion I had was to fill cylinder with WD40 to try to break down the old stuff.

Anybody got a better idea?
