What's in your grease gun???

[Snagglefoot]

It’s not often that I change cartridges as I only grease two trucks but today was the day!

Out: Motomaster Formula 1 Synthetic.
In: Motomaster Formula 1 Synthetic.

This is the Canadian Tire store brand made by Citgo and is the same as Mystik Synthetic AFAIK. I used to use Mobil 1 Synthetic, but unfortunately like many others, I found it to be too drippy. Inside my old cartridge was a bit of grease that I swiped out and put into an empty, clean spice jar. I’ll do a drip test this summer. By the way, I searched this thread for Formula 1 Synthetic and found I loaded a cartridge in 2018, 2020 and now, for a rough average of one every two years.

Here is what the grease did in the spice jar. One blob fell lower in the jar but the liquid never did separate out.

Mystik JT-6 High Temp Grease #2 -the red stuff.
Fresh boat trailer bearings installed yesterday, I'm good for a few more years.

Have you ever done that with m1 grease? just curious.

I have "green grease" in my grease gun.. never had seperation issues.
it goes in the trailer wheel bearings and various tractors.
one tube lasts me about 2 years at this rate.

still have an extra tube.. so looking at 2026 for my next grease purchase

my grease gun uses 9 millimeters.

I bought this grease gun at auction, it also came with a few tubes of mystik JT2. I assume it’s the same grease that is loaded in this gun. I left it outside on the ground for a few hours in 95 degree heat and it peed out a little. Not really complaining, but only observing. The grease came out the business end without issue.

I like Redline because of it's better properties and performance in automotive/hunting but if someone needs to use some I loan out the Valvoline Synpower. Kinda like my beer; I like the better stuff and give the cheap stuff to everyone else

Green grease in one, sinopec 5% moly in another and lithium in the final one

Out : Chevron Delo EP2. Thanks Chevron for discontinuing my go to grease for the last 20 years and not offering anything close in spec to replace it.

IN : Klondike EP 1.5 Nanotech.

It's not discontinued. Just was renamed to Starplex.
An excellent grease.

5X cartridges of Shell Rotella HD is what I recently purchased for lubing up my tractor. Thinking about getting a Dewalt grease gun.

 

[kballowe]

Went to do the end of year service on the power equipment and discovered that I was out of grease.
Off to the parts store, and in goes another tube of Mystik JT-6

Mystik JT-6 into Milwaukee M18 grease gun, used it for the first time tonight, didn’t think I would like it, but I love it.

 

[Jim K]

These are in my grease gun. But don`t be scared I wouldn`t use them on you.

Mobil Delvac Extreme, lithium based. $5 at Summit Racing.

Broke the plunger rod trying to reload the Milwaukee M18 grease gun. Seems like a common issue, ordered 3 replacement rods, replaced it easy enough. Reloaded with Delvac Xtreme Commercial Vehicle Grease.
