Hi, I'm cleaning up my speedometer gear reducer out of my 2 ton. It looks like the larger screw on the top is for grease, what kind should I use? It looks like the diaphram is in good shape, though I found the whole unit disconnected on the floor. The vacuum line was rotten. Hopefully I can replace the line and it will work. I love this site, I get lots of enjoyment out of what you all are doing. Thanks.

I ended up just putting some 90wt gear oil in through the slotted head screw on top while rotating the square drive key. It was stuck at first, but after turning it a while it turns easily. It will be nice to have a working speedo.
