Starwriter Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 It might not be the zerk. It could be the hole in the pin is gunked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastrykiller Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Ace hardware has them. Remove the zerks and clean them out. My link wouldn't take grease until I took a small pick and removed the grease from the underside that had turned rock hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbowrenchhead Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I got new zerks from my auto parts supplier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbowrenchhead Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I put the zerks in and it still won't take grease on two of them. I'll have to pull the hardware and clean it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Duh, what'd I tell you? Maybe you should have stuck the possibly plugged zerk in the grease gun by itself and checked to see if it flowed grease. Or swapped 1 of the working zerks into the bad hole.
