The applicator makes no difference. It's whatever fits on the
fitting. Since the cars came with a small threaded plug that you took out
and fitted a zerc or grease nipple onto, lubed the joint, then replaced the
plug, it doesn't make any difference. Use something that fits your
car. Feel free to replace the fittings with something that is easier to
access.

Make sure to use oil and not grease like many Spits have had done to them
over the years. If there is a grease fitting there, there is a good chance
that some overzealous shop may have put grease in there when doing other
lubrication upkeep.
