did you have the symptom where you push down the handle and it just doesn't do anything?
then a while later there is a puddle of oil under your jack?

it's hard to describe, but follow where the handle goes down you'll have a little ram. inside there will be little o-rings. usually a soft rubber like one and then a harder plastic type ring. pull those out and go to aco or a hardware store with o-ring sets. find one that is pretty close to size. should cost less then $1.00. swap it back in and fill it back up.

oh, you probably have to take the whole jack apart to get to that part but it's no big deal. Don't throw the jack away as some think it is junk ( and I hae heard). I'll come and get it if you are thinking about doing that.
