Try a paper clip or small wire to clear the port.

yep works every time

and i know it sounds backwards, but on my tractors i keep some grease on them so trash dont get near the zert, just wipe it off and put fresh grease into it, then just a little to cover it back up

I use rubber brake bleeder covers to keep my zerks clean. They're available in a variety of sizes.
