2009 Yamaha 150 Vmax - zerk size/grease problem

[Fishingdoc]

Hi boaters & fisherpersons,

Having trouble greasing steering zerks because the stainless rod interfers with both a stiff and a flex hose grease gun. A 90 degree zerk might work better. Any idea what size (millimeters) I need to order? Thx Denny

The 90 or 45 Degree zerk might work, there's also a "grease needle", looks just like a hypodermic needle that you screw onto the end of your grease gun, stick it in zerk and pump grease in. Pretty handy item for inaccessible zerks or for injecting grease under seals. I believe I bought mine at NAPA or similar store. Good Luck!
