Is there a zirc that I can grease the gimble bearings without having to pull the outdrive? If so where is it located and what type of grease would I use. I have a H190 with a Volvo SX outdtrive.
Thanks

Right-hand side of the transom shield, right up against the transom. The zirk is in a recess. On a 190 it might be hard to get to, I think someone recently said they had to buy a right-angle adapter for their grease gun. It should be greased with the engine running, and as soon as resistance is felt, stop.

I dont think a 2007 has a grease fitting.I believe it is a sealed bearing.

The new ones can't be greased? Interesting, I didn't know that.

Mine has a zerk exactly as Mike described it. I got a small flexible hose for my grease gun to get to it.
