https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkkj8VTmpWTU431qYX4_Svg/join So a while ago I got this “Bottle Jack” and two other ones at the recycling yard. I did a restoration on one of them and in my boredom, I decided to make a kind of a how-to video of me repairing this one.

The third bottle jack is unfortunately not fixable since it has been welded shut.

Anyways I hope you enjoy the video.

If you have any suggestions for improvement, or compliments share them below!

  1. as a reward for the movie, I would like to hit you

  2. I have at 15-20 hydraulic jacks that need that done to them. Good information. Thank you

  3. You must change the sells or replace the same sells

  4. Well done, it was as if I was watching myself rebuild it; I have never done it and have one waiting out in the shop. Thank you.

  6. 12:03 You poured too much oil. There should be some air in the reservoir cause when you pump, the oil goes from the reservoir into the cylinder which creates underpressure in the reservoir.

    As you can see in this video, the factory-new jack was not fully filled with oil by the manufacturer cause not a drop of oil spilled out of it after removing the plug:

    This guy is probably the only one on the entire Internet who knows how to properly fill a bottle jack:

  7. please say about the availability of o rings and valves

  8. The handle goes back up when i pump mine.

  9. A light smearing of silicone grease or a light oil would help the O rings to go in easily.

  10. thank you so very i never knew how to before now know how fix a floor jack now.🤔

  11. WHY DIDN'T YOU CHECK THE OIL LEVEL FIRST , IT MITE HAVE BEEN JUST LOW ON OIL.

  12. what a nerd use the right tools

  13. Hello my dear you luke soo beautiful❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  14. Interesting. Our late 60's vintage Sears Craftsman 1.5T floor jack (Made in Japan) has a thick rubber bushing near the base of the main shaft. It got destroyed years ago when my dad loaned the floor jack to a neighbor who tried to lift one side of his Kenworth tractor trailer. About ten years ago I managed to find a seller in Belmont Shores , CA who sold repair kits for various types of hydraulic jacks. I guess the moral of my story is, if you treasure your tools and equipment, don't loan them out because people won't respect them and destroy them, or they will and try to keep them.
