What grease gun do you use?

[atch]

I've driven my "new" 1930 sedan enough in the two months that I've owned it that I need to be some lubing. I have 2 of the old fashioned large grease guns. You know, the kind that everyone on here has at least one of; and probably more.

I don't mind using one of them but am wondering if anyone uses the smaller ones.

Is there another better option?

I imagine that the answer is on the barn somewhere but my meager searching skills didn't find it.

I have 2 Lincoln battery powered grease guns. Much better than the hand pump style.

I just bought a DeWalt battery powered one. I'll be using it next time. Should make the job much easier.

See your other post, "What Grease do you use?" #4.

Do you have flexible hoses on those grease guns?

 

[David in San Antonio]

I use a flex hose. It would be impossible to get to some of the fittings otherwise.

Note: both of my grease guns have flexible hoses on them.

Milwaukee battery and a small manual gun for the few original fittings I have left

The DeWalt has a long enough hose to leave the gun on the ground and still reach the zerks. Which is good since it's not as light as just a grease gun.

I use 2 small LINCOLN grease guns, one for water pump grease & one for chassis grease. The slide is about greases.

I use this altemite era grease gun that is fast and easy to use with one hand.

I use this altemite era grease gun that is fast and easy to use with one hand.

Do you have to hand pack that? I'm assuming a small grease cylinder like they sell nowadays doesn't fit in there. Any tips and tricks on packing it with grease?

I use Luca's Red and Tacky grease. works great. I have a sealed water pump so no need on that one

The DeWalt grease gun is a game changer! If you’re using a different line of tools, check and see if they offer a battery powered grease gun. Don’t buy a different brand of battery if you don’t need to.
