Most parts stores will have a suction gun about the same size and shape as a
lever action grease gun but has a flexible clear plastic tube on the
business end and works like a large syringe ie. you pull the handle back to
fill it up, then place the plastic tube in the filler hole and then push the
handle down. The last one I bought was a little over 10 bucks. Wayne
