How do you know when to stop greasing a bearing?
u know when you have greased a bearing when grease starts puffing out. as far as do you ever stop greasing a bearing not as long as the bearing is still in service
What causes a wheel bearing to go bad on a car hauler trailer?
There are 2 main reasons bearings "GO BAD" on a car hauler.Number 1 is lack of grease/The correct HIGH temperature grease! and the 2nd is overtightening the bearing lock nut.As the wheels turn temperatures increase and bearings expand,this causes the bearings to grind into or gall the races causing particles of bearing to destroy the smooth bearing surface.First wipe off grease from bearings.NEXT place long strand high melting point wheel bearing grease in your palm.With the clean bearing(soak in solvent after wiping off grease) press the larger end of bearing into the grease in your palm,until grease comes out of top of bearing cones,or through the entire bearing assembly.Do this to the other bearing of course.Clean old dirty grease from spindle and inside hub.Then replace inner bearing and grease seal.Then replace hub assembly on spindle.Install outer bearing next(make sure the bearing races pressed into hub were cleaned,and of course make sure no pitting exists on bearings or races.If so replace both as a set.)hand tighten hub nut finger tight,spin tire/hub assembly make sure nut is still finger tight.Then back off spindle nut 1/16 to 1/18 of a turn,until cotter pin lines up with holes in spindle nut and spindle.Insert cotter pin,bend over ends and make sure there is clearance for dust cap so cotter pin doesnt rub on inside of dust cap.YOUR DONE.

How do you repack front wheel bearings on a Toyota 4runner?
Pull the wheel front and rear bearing and clean out the old grease. You dont have to be perfect but do a good job. Then clean all the parts of as much of the old greas from the outside and make note of the order for the parts. Pull the seal and replace this part. Now all is clean and ready to re-grease. to pack the bearing you can do it old school or new school. Us old school will place a wad of grease in the palm of one hand and hold the bearing in the other. Then with a push and slide motion you can scrape the edge of the grease and shove it in one of the cracks of the bearins. This forcing motion will shove new grease in the bearing on one end. and the old grease out the other. When new grease is coming out the other end then turn the bearing and do the next ecction of the bearing. Its a long dirty process but it gets the job done. Do bother bearings and then put the parts back together in the back side of the hub. Prior to doing this put a good amount of grese on the bearing surfaces inside the hub. You don't have to plug it up but you dont want the new grease running out the bearing either. Then reinstall the seal and lube the shaft on the car. Reinstall the hub and then do the same thing on the front bearing. New school is the same except you use a bearing packer from a store. All the auto places and even wal mart will carry it. You place the bearing in a holder and use a grease gun to pack the bearing. It is time efficient and once you start to pump the grease you see the old come out the sides. Once all the old is out and new stuff starts coming out you are done. Nice and neat the first time but it uses a bit more grease that can go to waste. Just be careful. Since grease LOVES to hold dirt and debris you need to be super careful after you use it so it stays clean for next time. I just pulled my 96 Toyota bearings and the race and bearings look new. I change the grease about every 50 000 miles and I now have 325000 on the vehicle. So its worth the time.
What can be a problem when you cook on grills full of grease?
Sometimes the grease build up on a grill will flare up and burn off. Depending on where the grease is in the grill, it could burn the food you're cooking. The amount of grease there determines how long it will burn. You should never leave a grill for long, and always keep an eye out for fire.
Why is it hard to remove grease using only water?
Greasy food is food that is cooked in an oil or butter. Oil and water do not mix, therefore saponification process is necessary that will separate the oil from the fabric, this is accomplished with soap.
