2003 GTI LE RFI PTO Flywheel Lube--Can't fit grease gun tip on

[Rich359]

Hi,

I am trying to lube the PTO Flywheel but my grease gun tip is too fat to fit into the small space between the zerk fitting and the side of the flywheel. The auto parts store did not have any grease guns or fittings with smaller profiles. Is there a special fitting required for this?

Thanks,

Rich

I solved this myself by filing down the tip of the grease gun until it fit.

you can put a 45 degree fitting on it, or they have a long skinny adapter that they use on the tight, hard to get to spaces
