Default how much grease is enough?

Ok... I have searched this forum and cannot find the direct answer I am looking for. I am greasing my aftermarket LCA's and noticed that some of them take 1 or 2 pumps then I can feel the back pressure. On others I can pump about 10 times and never feel any pressure building up.

Is there so many pumps or what is the amount of grease that needs to be put into these things?

This may be a dumb question, but I don't know the answer.

Thanks Mark, that was simple enough.

Can I take you up on that spacer install on March 26th? We can knock out the spacer install then head out for wings and a few brews on me if your down.
