If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

I borrowed one of those... absolute rubbish there was more oil on me and the drive than in the diff housing!
Annoyingly i wasted a bit too much for there to be enough oil in each bottle to do the job twice!

I'm doing my tbox, gearbox and diffs in a couple of months (March ish) and will be buying a cheap pump up weed killer sprayer thing! i'll then cut the standard rigid pipe and attach a length of clear hose to allow me to watch the flow as i pull the trigger. Warm the oil in a bucket of hot water before pumping to help a bit

I had similar problems with sryinge. I got mine from local motor factors, perhaps that was the problem. Should have gone to Machine Mart. I finished up using a short length of hosepipe run up into engine bay and then put nozzle of oil container into it.
Your idea of modified weed killer spray sounds like it could work.
