Removed zerk, installed a new one-no work. put old zerk on grease gun, grease shot right through it. Took zerk out, ran a small wire around-nothing came out but clean grease. Filled zerk hole with Kroll & krolled hinge sides about once a day for three days. Replaced zerk & still won't take grease. Now what? [Reply]   [No Email]

If it has and has a groove you can just re-drill the hole through the bushing. Probably just totally caked with grease and dirt though and a good cleaning will fix it. [Reply]  [No Email]

Put a cap on it to keep dirt out. I used this method to free up a suspension fitting, on a rubber tracked loader, took about 6-8 weeks, till I smelled the Kroil seeping out! [Reply]  [No Email]
