Hey Old, if you know what size they are (metric, 1/4 pipe, drive in, etc) you can get any of them you want from Mcmaster Carr. Their not that expensive for a pack of 5, 10, or however they come and Mcmaster doesn't have a minimum so you ought to be able to get close to the amount you need. Beyond replacing them you can try the breakout tools the other posts have mentioned, that's good if their gummed up. If you grease them regularly though that shouldn't be an issue. In my experience when a zerk that's used regularly "sticks" it's usually that the spring has broken and the check ball "backseats" itself in the housing when you try to force grease through it. If that's what's happening nothing you try is ever gonna work short of knocking the check ball out somehow. In any case the easiest and surest fix is probably gonna be to replace them...before you lose your religion over them.... Good luck.
