What is the official name of one of them jobbers if you have a grease zerk that won't take grease, you fill this thing with grease or penetrating oil, put it on the offending zerk, then nnalert it with a hammer, in theory opening up the zerk to take grease again. Can't think of what it's called so I can google it.
 
We always called them "new grease fittings".
That way you can clean out all the old crap in the hole under it also.
 
My brother used one on his 67 International pickup,he filled it with PB Blaster and freed up his kingpins,said it worked great,he bought it at Car Quest or Orielly's.
 
What ever you call it, don't waste your money. I got one. Used it once. By the time you get done with the mess your just as well off taking the zerk out and heating it with a torch. My opinion your results my vary.
 
Unless it is in a hard to get at place I always replace with a new one, No more trouble. When I get a few plugged ones I put them in a little solvent or something and let them soak for a few days. If they are in fairly good shape after cleaning I reuse them.
 
I built my entire house myself including cabinets, wiring, plumbing, block and stone laying, trim, etc, etc, Something else I have done is rebuild player pianos and pump organs.
