# help with grease gun...

Posted by lophix (94se) on September 10, 2004 at 13:54:25: replacing tierod end and it comes with one of those fitting thingys....I hate them because everytime I try to grease something with a fitting, and try to detach the grease gun, I wind up breaking the fitting in two and that part is totalled. How on earth do you separate the fitting from the gun's mouth thingy? any tricks?? I've pulled straight out and it's not giving. Any help will be really appreciated...on a tight time frame Replys: i rocked back and forth and it came off! finally! .... lophix (94se) 15:36:33 9/10/2004 (1) Good job, grasshoppah. :) nm Matt (93SE) 15:43:21 9/10/2004 (0) rock back and forth while pulling. If that doesn't work, use a screwdriver and carefully pry off. I've never had one stick like that. nm Matt (93SE) 15:23:34 9/10/2004 (0) maybe its your gun? we had an air operated one at school and it was easy as pie, never broke a fitting hmmm n/m MrGone (92se) 14:16:29 9/10/2004 (1) hmm..k. i might wind up having to break the fitting off again...:(nm lophix (94se) 14:18:10 9/10/2004 (0)
