    Thanks for the video. I’ll give it a shot. I picked up a used jack. Old school. It puns up but won’t stay up. Hope this works. I was always told to bleed with the cap on and pump it then pop the cap and put it back on. You are the second video to do your way. I’ll try it.

    Will try that. I have the 2.5ton Pittsburgh racing Jack(blue). A Christmas gift only a year old but seldom used. It will not pump up hardly and not stay up if I barely get it higher. Will try this tomorrow. Another video said it could be an o-ring replacement job.

    I literally can’t find any video on how to fix that issue, because mine has been filled but still doesn’t Jack! When I pulled the pin out though, one of the 2 o rings is broken in two pieces. Was wondering if that could be why??

    Didn't work for me. Plenty of fluid in the reservoir. I did hear air come out. Did everything like you said. But it won't pump up like normal. It's like it's only pumping on the last 1/3rd of the pump if that makes sense and only lifted to about 8 inches out of 20 something. What else could it be. I added oil to it and everything.

    So I pumped UT with the release open several times. Maybe 10. I can do 40. 40 seems like pumping the hell out of it. How much oil is touch oil? When I first started pumping it after filling the oil it over flowed. I can take some out if it needs some degree of air space. I'm not ready to give up on it yet

    Check to make sure that the 2 cylinders springs in between the back wheels on the jack below the jacking handle make sure they're both going down and back up. Sometimes one or both will stick.
