arcturus;
"...blocking of the oil jet and packing the space with grease...(to)...ensure adequate lubrication at all times" I have to say the former is a BAAAAD idea, because the later is not assured...without a design which would prevent this, grease has a preference for displacing and moving away from the interfacing teeth, to where its left alone, and where it would certainly not be doing the necessary continuous lubing!
A constant low-volume feed from the oil system with return to the sump is a design which has proven itself in millions of miles (in one well-known case, one just one vehicle!!!)...I recommend against reengineering a motor which Volvo undoubtably spend many hours on the dyne developing...
Cheers
