U-Joint Problems
Went to grease up my u-joints, One of them took the grease, the other two wouldn't. Grease just shot all around the fitting. The little ball in the end of the fittings seem to move O.K. I'm kind of puzzled.

Re: U-Joint Problems
I sometimes have the wiggle the grease gun around while squeezing the handle to get the grease to go in

Re: U-Joint Problems
Tried a couple of times, then gave up. Ordered a new nozzle for my grease gun to replace the cheapo Vatozone nozzle on there, hopefully that will sort it out.

Re: U-Joint Problems
Try replacing the grease zert (may have mis-spelled that...lol) The passage inside them is pretty small and finding a clogged one doing a grease job is not uncommon. They are way cheap, by a couple extra so you have them on hand.
