[QUOTE="bobbie-g, post: 5240, member: 26"] Here's a couple of things to try: Northern Tool has a tool that will force light oil into the zerk. It's about $50 though. http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_6970_200130974_200130974 I have on occasion removed the zerk and probed around in the hole with an icepick or a small screwdriver to at least get all the dried gunk out of the way so the grease had a chance to get to the pin. On stubborn fittings, try to get the load on the side of pin which is away from the zerk so whatever slop/clearance there is in the pin is near the zerk. I suppose some heat might help, but that is pretty tricky and I would do everything else first. I'd be afraid I'd get something too hot. But on the bright side, Tazza can tell us how to undo anything we manage to mess up! --- Bob [/QUOTE]
