Default Spring Maintenance

Hey Everybody,

Got a G62, magneto version with spring start. Never had one of these before, and I've been advised that I should grease the spring at least a few time a season. I'm just wondering if anyone knows of a video or link for a tutorial, guide, something that will walk me through maintenance of the spring starter. I know many people have a preference for Electronic Ignition (I'm one of them), but the plane has this engine on it, and I have no intention of replacing it with another engine. Really I'm just

wondering if there is any specific grease I should use?

Are there are any quirks or anything to look out for when prepping for greasing the spring?
