I seem to be having a lot of trouble recently in getting a hand grease gun to start pumping grease following a cartridge change. I can pump it 200 times or more and no grease comes out the gun. Before those pre-packed cartridges became the norm and we hand filled the gun from a 5 gallon bucket of grease I don't recall any problems but that was decades ago in my youth. I generally have found that beating the end of the grease gun on a piece of wood shakes it loose so it can be pumped out but that doesn't seem to work on this one. I presently have it setting vertically in direct sunshine thinking maybe the grease in the cartridge will flow a little better but it is presently in the 70's now but headed to the upper 80's later today. Does anyone have a solution that seems to work to get the grease flowing after a cartridge change?? This is a Lincoln brand name grease gun but still could be something from across the big pond to our west. Thanks for any suggestions which might resolve this issue, Hal.
