From what I under stand the Molybdenum grease (as opposed to the regular NLGI No.2) is just for higher temps and there should be no problems using it for all zerks.

I am a dealer for AMSOIL. Use the NLGI #2 The #1 is not recommended for wheel bearings. It is red in color. It comes in a tube for the grease gun and a squeeze tube. I use the AMSOIL 75W-90 gear lube in the clutch, rear diff, front transfer case and transmission. I also use the AMSOIL 0W-30 engine oil(good for 35,000 miles or 1 year), the AMSOIL air filter and the AMSOIL engine filters. I get 28 mpg out of a 1995 tacoma 4x4. We installed a bypass filtration unit on my wifes ford mustang and you never change the oil in her car you are only doing oil analysis and changing the 2 oil filters once a year. Hope this helps. http://www.synthetic-oil-tech.com/1157349 go to the online store and click on grease and read all about the grease. Hope this helps

as long as it's #2 grease, you should have no problems. he's full of it.
A mechanic can not void your warranty because of the type of oil or grease you use. This is called preventative maintainance. I am an AMSOIL dealer and I know all about this mess. I have a great article about warranty coverage on my website. http://www.synthetic-oil-tech.com/1157349
