I have obtained this grease gun but I am confused as to how it is used.
The gun consists of a handle like a normal grease gun. In place of the
cartridge container into which one would normally load the grease
cartridge is a threaded female receptacle. What screws into this
receptacle? Is there a special oil container which attaches to the high
pressure gun to permit injection of the oil? If so what part is this? I
am really stumped!
Thanks for any help.

Ed,
this was discussed, and solved, a couple of months ago;
You just buy a nice little thing from the Mercury Marine
company:
It's a special "grease" gun intended for high pressure pumping
of
OIL into grease nipples! Part No 91-372 99A 1 and sold under the
Mercury/Quicksilver brand. And cheap it was too. So don't
hesitate
to get one - they're great.
