  • During shipping and handling, or after topping up with oil, jacks may have air trapped in the hydraulic system. When this occurs, the pumping action can become spongey, offer only minimal lifting on each pump of the handle, or possibly not even lift at all.
    All of these potential problems are easily solved by purging the air from the jack.

    when bleeding, what happens if you pinch open the filler plug for a long time ? When ever you add more oil, does that mean you have to bleed because you are possibly letting a lot of atmospheric air into the system ?

    Great video!
    You can buy the rubber plugs on Amazon in case you mess it up by the way.

    You say only use a specific kind if oil. What kind? I have a duralast & there's apparently no phone # for duralast to ask them👋

      You can buy Jack oil at the auto parts store I think it's pretty well universal.

      You dont, unless you use it a lot and the seals are bad or rust contaminates the oil.
      The main problem with lube oil used in vehicles/engines is heat and exposure to combustion or coolant, etc. if you have a major problem.
