Molgrips, 'Vicegrips' or pliers as already said.

I've had great success with this by pumping just enough grease in, then giving it one more squirt ๐Ÿ˜ณ

midlifecrashes - I did too, was it on the seat tube/shock pivot? I found that the Zerk was too long and bottoming out before binding to the frame, or the hole wasn't quite deep enough. After fitting a couple and subsequently finishing a ride to find I am minus a Zerk, I filed down (shortened)a new Zerk before fitting, no probs since (couple of years ago now). ๐Ÿ™‚
