If this is a pressed/drive in grease zerk & the only one on your Z that is lubricated;
look at your grease gun fitting & see by chance did it pull out the last time you greased it.
I've had this happen at work before & ended up tapping hole & using a thread in type.
Just a thought.

I haven't greased it yet since I've only driven it around 700 miles or so. Good call though, I could see how a non threaded zerk could stick in the gun if it really wasn't pressed in tight.
