Is something like this repairable?
A floor jack is like any other hydraulic device. It has seals and gaskets that can go bad. My 1967 Black Hawk floor jack need to have the seals redone after 20 years. I took it to a shop that specialized in jack repair. This was before the inexpensive jacks that you can get now where being sold. If yours is in need of a visit to the repair shop, it might not be economical to have one repaired nowadays. You can probably buy a new one for less than the cost of the repair. The only way to find out is to call a hydraulic repair shop and get a quote.
