  • Today I have a broken hydraulic jack that won't pump up at all.
    The fix was surprisingly easy. It's now back to full strength.

    If you like watching my TH-cam channel or just watched a single video that helped you out why not buy me a coffee. I’d really appreciate it.

    Great video, rotate those CMU blocks a quarter turn so the wooden beam sits on the flat side and the tank will stay level.

      They are sinking into the dirt a bit. My thinking was having them this way up would give them their full compressive strength, same as they would in a building. It’s not a big deal really I was just looking for something heavy to jack up. 🤠
      That is certainly an option if I can’t stand the lean any more :)
      Thanks for commenting

      It was easier to fix than I expected!

      Thanks! I wasn’t expecting the reason to be “Don’t Lay it Down” 🤠
      The owner was about to bin it. It lives on now.

      That’s quite the endorsement coming from someone with the name “Bottle Jack Buddy”
      🤠 Thanks
      PS. I just checked your channel and I now know what a bottle Jack buddy is. They look like a cool idea.

    Did you replace the o ring(s)
    It looked to me like it was behaving the same way as it would if the valve was slightly open, aka buggered oring

      There was still one good one on it.
      Who needs double redundancy anyway, it’s only 4000 kg. (8818.49 lb)
      Don’t forget your safety glasses that second o-ring could go at any time.
      Alright, alright I’ll put a backup oring on 🤠

      I forgot to say that the o-ring just stops low pressure oil leaking out. The high pressure bit is on the end of the screw.
      I didn’t look that close but it’s probably a cone shaped point.

      Thanks Matt!
      I learnt not to store them laying down 🤠
