Just as the time said. I have hydrolic fluid comming out of it and can't seem to find a way to rebuild it.

I don't know how to fix it for sure, but when it happened to mine it got to the point where it was just completely empty and would not go up anymore, I just filled it up with oil and like magic it worked perfect again, it's like because it wasn't full air was getting in that cylinder and causing it to leak, but once it was full again it didn't leak and worked perfect.

Again, I don't know if it makes sense but it worked for me.

ya i guess its either needing fluid, or leaking from needing new seals.

if it was an expensive jack. yeah u might be able to rebuild it.

but usually thats just the end of its life, chuck it and buy a new one.

SO TRUE! Try filling it with hydraulic fluid (brake fluid) and see if that works. Always make sure to use jackstands when going under. If it was a cheapo jack just get a new one, not worth the danger
