Hi John, (Slightly off -topic) I recall during my one-week trip to Perth that there are a lot of interesting differences between U.S. and Australian English. I learned quickly that some of the words we commonly use have a vastly different meaning there. I once made the mistake of loudly proclaiming that I was "stuffed" after completing a great meal in a hotel restaurant. My Aussie friend got pretty animated and cautioned me not to use such language in public! Ooops - we live and learn. ;-) Jack John Allott wrote: Thanks Jack - commonly known as a grease nipple over here...[:-) John (02) 6021 7013 jallott@albury.net.au ----- Original Message ----- From: Jack Riddell To: VintageLambo@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2003 2:13 AM Subject: Re: [VintageLambo] Re: Espada bushings & zerks Hi John, I drew a quick sketch of a zerk fitting. It is nothing more that a nipple with a hollow center through which you can force grease John Allott wrote: Sorry guys, you have lost me. I know jerks and quirks, but zerks ????? John
