Default Deleted lubrication syatem

It's a shame it's been removed because they seem to work for 70 years without causing any trouble. I have seen grease nipples used to replace all the lubrication connections when this has happened.
The auto lube system uses a heavier grade oil. In my experience if you put light engine oil in it gets everywhere and can spoil your brake pads. I'd use a heavy oil, some use a liquid grease, and either way do it frequently. It shouldn't be stiff, doubtless disassembling will reveal what is too tight.
