If the grease gun idea was any good I would have made one. :wink:
They are just too slow, The master cylinder can pump much quicker than a grease gun. They are Ok for a quick top-up but too slow for a full fill. :wink:

Nonsense, I've done 2 cars with mine now from empty and it takes about 4 fills of the gun to get the car off the bump stops.. no time at all. A master cylinder will be faster though.. maybe I'm just not as impatient as some :lol:
