[DeTomaso] How much grease?

[Larry - Ohio Time]

Guns and Lub how could I not know this.....


Like most things in life too much is not good, but not enough is worse.
I will make the assumption you have a hand pump model (guys please) so you
can go slowly till you see some seep out. It is best to see each cup seep
some.  Like Bud said you need to clean up the seepage (guys stop) so it does
not make a mess.

See I can be good.

Hi all

 

While you on the east coast of the US are getting hammered with snow, it's
unseasonably warm here today, so I took the Pantera out. It's really good
for the soul!

 

I'm playing with one of my Christmas presents - a grease gun. I've never had
one before, and was advised that as a minimum I should hit my u-joints with
some grease after my long trip last year. How much grease needs to be added?
How do you know when enough is enough? Keep in mind I'm a grease rookie. 

 

I hook up my tube to the zerk fitting and pump - should I see grease come
out somewhere? Or give it one good pump per zerk, or ??

 

Thank you!
