You are now using hydraulics, and you WILL do damage. You can force the zerk fitting out, and damage the bearing seals.

Just to clarify for the thread so this doesn't become a "installation error or greasing error or user error thing " I have not even opened the grease, grease gun or grease gun hose. I have not greased this turbo yet and the zerk fitting just fell out at some point in time just driving the car.
