    Hey everyone,I really need some quick help/advice. My guy complained about grinding that went away when he tapped the clutch. i told him to pump a little grease into the TO bearing and he shot it 12 times. The truck hasnnt been started yet so maybe Disaster can be averted? This truck needs to roll in a few hours and I'm completely on my own. any.suggestions? And what.exactly.are the repercussions of.getting grease on the clutch?

    The excess grease won't get on the clutch friction surface, it will just get all over the clutch brake causing it to not work well. I wouldn't be overly concerned, the grease will find it's own way into the bellhousing.
