- oven the valve you use to drop the jack by one turn and let jack drop to lowers position
- pump 8 times with valve open
- close valve and raise jack to max height
- pump 8 more times
- find the bleed valve and release any build-up air
- drop and test

Hello King,
Are these same valve or the two different valves?
- pump 8 times with valve open
...
- find the bleed valve and release any build-up air

Also, is there a special "oil" to used in a floor jack?

Thanks
