The cork in the toolkit's Tecalemit No 3020 grease gun needs to be  
replaced.
 
It does not look like a big deal:  unscrew the lower spring off the  
plunger shaft, deburr the shaft to allow the removal of the two washers and  
what 
is left of the cork.  
 
Drill a hole in a fairly closely sized new cork with Dremel tool.   
Reassemble.  I have not found appropriately sized corks with holes as  yet.  
 
It may be better to Key the retaining washers with a Dremel tool, leaving  
the original burrs on the shaft.
 
This is pretty trivial, but if anyone has any insights, they would be  
appreciated.
 
Best Regards,
 
Bill
