Honda recommends a "high quality molybdenum disulfide grease" when repacking the CV joints on a 1991 Civic DX. However, I have been unable to find any suitable grease with 3% MoS2 that has a NLGI viscosity of 1, while there are many suitable greases with NLGI viscosity of 2. Do you know of any reason why #2 grease would not be suitable in this application.
Question # 2. A new C-V joint grease recommended by major refineries and reportedly used as OEM grease by Ford and NKG contains no MoS2. Do you know whay that EP additive have been dropped?
