I've been out reading the technical literature on various bearing manufacturer websites concerning lubrication. The takeaway is more is not necessarily better, particularly at high speeds, and required viscosity goes down with speed. Spinning the IMS slowly after oil has replaced the grease might not be best approach for IMSB life. Looking at the lubrication requirements makes it clear that a correct application of lubrication is important. Simply squirting oil at the bearing does not appear to be a technically sound solution.
