Hector;
        Be aware; the grease gun hose and/or tee connector may have
standard 1/8 npt threads. These are VERY close to the metric sender. It
will probably screw in, once. Damage to the block's threads may occur. I
had to use quite a selection of adaptors to hook mine up.

Good Luck and Drive Safely
