Tool : any grease gun you will recommend

[letank]

Please, I need a reference for a grease gun that can accomodate good grease cartridges and not smear grease all over. Small size is fine, it fits the motos as well.

thank you

Not sure if it is what you are looking for, but I bought one from Harbor Freight. It is all metal and I have gone through 2 cartridges with it. It has worked great so far.

Go to a John Deere dealer or Napa and get the guns with the heavier made tops. I usually buy the JD, but I bought one from Napa not to long ago and it works good. Most on the market suck(made in china POS), Go to where they sell heavy equipment stuff!

I got a Blue Point off the snap on guy about 15 years ago. Pistol grip and great quality. Money well spent.

I bought the big one from Harbor Freight. Works great

yard/barn sales usually have "old" grease guns, i've picked up several for a couple bux each

What aobut the air guns? Are those any better? Or just more expensive?

I picked up one of the "mini" guns someplace. FLAPS I think. And it's a piece of poo.

I would recommend finding a good quality pistol grip type. Also it is a good idea to have some different type of adapters for the end.
For example I use a very narrow tip to grease the double cardon joint on the front drive shaft and they can be easier to use on the standard fittings on the rear drive shaft (the driveshaft doesn't have to be in an exact spot to access the fitting) along with a 90 degree for other fittings on the steering linkage and every once in a while I have a hypodermic needle type for small projects.

The air guns are good when they are working, but they are expensive and noy reliable. They are a PITA to prime at times and if the grease is below 60 degrees forget it. I have not had good luck with them.
