3 different greases?

[egclassic]

I began collecting supplies to perform maintenance on my "new to me" 1996 Rinker with 4.3LX mercruiser motor. Fresh oil and filter, water/fuel seperator filter, gear lube etc.
Then I came across the greases. Theres one for the Gimbel bearing, another for the engine coupler and a muti-purpose grease for everything else, each costs around $11 a tube.
I am not looking to start an oil, grease or favorite pizza thread here, just wondering if there is a "one size fits all" grease for these.
Thanks

Re: 3 different greases?

yeah thanks, that takes care of the gimbel bearing.
Cost really isn't the issue here,just don't need ten tubes of different grease laying around if a good after market grease will do all.
On my Harley, they used to recommend different lubes for crankcase, primary and tranny. Now it's ok to use one lube for all three holes. That's the point here.
