    Long as the bearing got grease, it's happy. Unlike an oiled system. Once you shut off the supply of oil. It's dead. I can't really tell in your pictures if there is grease or not in the holes. Take...

    I was going by on what you had said earlier. About them being pressed in. And no threads in the hole.

    The zerk is threaded into the stem, and the stem is threaded into the center section. Nothing is pressed in. OP, I will check with COMP on the torque spec, and other things mentioned.

    I'm just giving you a heads up on greasing. :D A press fit zerk fitting is not screwed into place. As there are no threads. So there are no torque specs. You have to either press them in, or beat...

    I've worked on a lot of equipment that had pressed in zerk fittings. Had to replace a bunch of them too. Grease systems are not high pressure. Once you remove the gun. The pressure goes away. When...

    The next time OP greases the turbo. Only do 3 pumps or less to grease. Don't try and force the grease in. When the handle starts to get hard to pump, STOP! If You try and force it. You are now using...

    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...

    I will be on COMP right away to get this figured out. I believe these are pressed in, so one can't simply pull hard when disconnecting the grease hose from the zerk. Common practice is to push the...

    I've seen the pressed/drive in zerk fittings on a dump truck body,,,but couldn't imagine it on an expensive Turbo. Hold on......This must be an "April-Fool's Joke"

    The threads would be below the camfer. Or, as per Rusty, it was pressed in. I kind of doubt this as most grease systems are fairly high pressure, but I'm no expert.
