All right, how many of you looked at this thread because of the subject line? Get your mind out of the gutter and see if you have an answer to this... I got under the car last night to lube the front end and it appears that one of the grease nipples is gone. I'm sorry to say but my eyes can't tell if it broke off or fell off. My questions are 1) what size are these? If I go to my FLAPS what size should I look for? I have bags of old 1/4" but are they a "metric works better" part? 2) I cleaned out the hole in the beam and it appears to be silver in there. Is this an indication that the old one might have broken off? How can i get the old one out especially because it is slightly recessed into the hole? Thanks in advance for any input. -- John 65 square (weezer) 04 jetta Just Cruisin By ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
