But I did like your idea.

Hey, Mike, did you get that broken zerk tip out of your grease gun yet?

[Mike1369]

Yes, once I learned to adjust the tip of grease gun it just fell out by itself.

Well don't feel bad, at 53 and an ex farmer I have never adjusted a grease gun and didn't even know it was possible! If I remember I will have to look at my grease guns just to see what the **** you guys are talking about, ok string on the finger............now what did I put that string on my finger for!

Back a thousand years ago when I was on the farm, I never had to adjust the tips either, Maybe it is the poorly fabricated zerks now that are all different sized that causes the problem
