I have an old beat up used 5' brush cutter. The previous owner appears to have used grease in the gearbox, and maybe mixed with a little oil too. Pretty sure the gearbox leaks oil, though.

If using grease in the gearbox rather than filling with oil, how often do you fill it with grease, and how much grease do you put in? Since you can't use a fill port to gauge it, do you just fill it until no more can go in, or would it be a problem if you put too much in?
