I am trying to follow the factory workshop manual for lubricating my new-to-me 1964 Evinrude 60 hp Sportfour motor and had two issues.

The Gear Shift Lever Shaft and Lockout grease fitting does not accept grease. I will try to clean the Zerk out but since it is out already and I can see into the cavity (it does not have grease in it that I can see) can I just manually fill the cavity using the grease gun? Where the does the come out of once it is full? Any thing to watch out for regarding overfilling?

thank you

attached is a picture of the area.. the fitting is under the circle cap in the very center of the picture
