Grease Zerks

When I grease one of the zerks on my JKS quick disconnects,.... and some other parts,... sometimes the grease comes back out of the hole that the grease went into without any "apparent" grease getting to where it is supposed to go. Is this a malfuntion of the zerk or is something else going on? TIA
 
Usually dirt keeps the little ball from popping back out and sealing it, Options are replace the zerk w/new one or remove it, clean it out with thinner and wood toothpick and put it back in. Hey, I'm cheap, I clean mine then replace if that does not work...
 
Sounds like terrific advice to me! Thanks!
