I just installed a worm gear on a BELL & HOWELL 1545B, I cleaned all the grease off all the metal and plastic parts, what grease should i use on worm and what grease should i use on plastic gears, is there anything that has to be oiled and what kind of oil.( worm is black w/ aluminum core i think its aluminum) any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated thanks, David.
