 Air Powered Grease Gun
Santa brought me one of those air powered grease guns for Christmas. I finally managed to buy some connectors for the air hose today and a cartridge of goop to go in it. Certainly has some power..........blown both welch plugs out of the king pins Another job to add to the list.

 Re: Air Powered Grease Gun
 On a slightly o/t note - did you restore that wegen van in your avatar? If so, where did you get the decals / lights etc?

 Re: Air Powered Grease Gun
There certainly is, put the air powered grease gun on Ebay... In low temperatures, it's best to be careful with the amount of pressure applied when greasing the king pins, even with a hand operated grease gun. ken Diesel Dave wrote: Santa brought me one of those air powered grease guns for Christmas.
