 Re: what size grease fitting
Take a grease fitting off, take it to the parts house and get one the same size. I use marine grease

 Re: what size grease fitting
I'm still not following, usually grease zerks are pretty universal.

 Re: what size grease fitting
By cap I meant to say the hexagonal screw that I took out where you pump the grease in. I have it and the gun now , I bought some grease fittings that screw in where the screw was . I can't tell if its getting grease when I pump however

 Re: what size grease fitting
Is grease coming out of the gun while not on the fitting? Just keep pumping. It was probably empty.

 Re: what size grease fitting
That's the thing, its rreally not coming out when pumping, if I hold the guns trigger mechanism it very very slowly comes out a little.

 Re: what size grease fitting
Thats your problem. I had the same thing happen to me. Throw that trash away and get the standatd size gun. If u look in those lil tubes there only about1/2 -3/4 full. Just a ripoff imo.
