I was just given this floor jack. Mechanically it looks fine, but it does not jack. I closed the valve and pumped the handle. It moves an inch or so. When I release the handle it goes down. I am thinking hydraulic fluid? So where is the reservoir located? I tried the little screw, but the hole is too small. It this a bleeder hole? Next thought was to remove the nut above the ram. Unfortunately there is an E clip above the spring and I can't remove it. I am sure there is a special tool right? If it works it would be a nice score for the $3 bucks it cost for the hydraulic fluid. Thanks, Eddy
