  • Grease fittings?

    I am curious to know if there are any grease fittings I should know about on my Formula (since I haven't had a dealer do an oil change for a very long time now). What exactly do they lubricate on a "lube, oil, filter" service? Thanks!

    No fittings from the factory. If you had the u-joints, ball joints or other steering components replaced, they may have used replacement parts withy Zerk fittings. Some aftermarket components with polyurethane bushings include grease fittings.

      Yeah, didn't notice any grease fittings (not even in the ball joints). So basically nothing to periodically grease besides the door hinges, hood latch, etc?

        Yep.

        You could also do the parking brake cables, hood release cable, and lock cylinders.
