I use this to add grease on the knuckle square head bolt. I put approx. A bottle of 3/4 grease on each wheel.
The tools works good and easy

Cheap and faster
Could use a pastry bag too with an big open tip.
What is it called and where to buy?
I've used a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off - cheap disposable version of the pastry bag idea.
Works OK, but a bit clumsy.

99 cents store
i think they use for cake decoration stuff..
Like i said one pump all grease goes in
@John copello - thanks for this idea, I've wanted this on the rare occasions that Birf grease fill level gets attention.
This should make it a smooth easy job.
BTW, for me, the grease gun falls short as a solution, because:
Looses prime just before I'm done, on my back, under the car, messy goop everywhere, every time, seems like.
It's a slippery spring loaded nightmare.
They hate me and I hate them back.

BTW, for me, the grease gun falls short as a solution, because:
- Would have to dedicate a grease gun to molly grease, but I have no other use for molly grease, other than Birf fill.
- It's hard to judge what volume you put in.
- Grease gun - the most hated tool in my garage.

Very non-cheap hack and only requires you delete your ABS

I bought a cheap continuous flow air grease gun, and removed the zerk fitting on the hose. Flows a whole cartridge out pretty quickly.

Resident galah
Or buy a Milwaukee 18volt grease gun
But then how do you know when you've put in enough grease? Too much and I'm sure that wouldn't be good for the seals.Buy some of @NLXTACY cool little zerky ABS delete thingy buy a Pneumatic grease gun and fill them up

Cool idea, here's my version:
Pull out the plunger, pack full of moly, wipe it off, throw into a large ziplock bag with another smaller ziplock bag that contains some nitrile gloves and keep in your tool kit. Whenever you need a top up its quick and easy.

@ZackR - do you find it reasonably easy (hand pressure) to push grease through the small nozzle on that syringe?
Looks like various cake decorating thingies are available from Amazon (well... if I have to, I guess).
But the one shown above (bellows type) isn't a 1$ item, it's a $15 set.
Other syringe types - $5 to $15 or more, mostly crap quality.
Some reviewer on Amazon mentioned Beds Baths and Beyond for these.
Mixed reviews - likely to split open at bottom.
Not enough threads - lid may pop off.
BTW, I find a cake decorating spatula handy for handling grease.
Sort of a long flexy steel blade tool with a round tip.
Funny - cake decoration and greasing cars - odd match up.

Forgot to mention the black velvet robe in the background, it's also a recommended part of the toolkit.
Yes, the tip is easy enough to snip off to whatever size you like. Its easy to push out the grease.
