I have heard of all kinds of types of grease, NOT to use and what should be used. Does anyone out there have a PART# for the grease used by a major servo manufactuer? (Their Product sold, by them for gears). It would last a long time and I could just order it from my LHS. ... thanks...

I think there's too much magic attached to this subject. A good quality White Lithium grease won't melt your servo.

Don't waste your time, just buy generic lithium grease from a local DIY store. Just don't use too much, just a light residue on the gears themselves and put a very small blob where it's likley to be 'bumped' into the gear train at some point just from general use. The smallest tube you can buy at a store is going to last you your entire life for use as servo grease. The cap alone will hold enough for two full applications.

Yes, it is low sulfur lithium grease. It needs to be low sulfur so that it doesn't cause a problem if it liquefies and run into the electronics.
