Does floor jack stop leak oil work?

Eventually the chinesium jack will stop leaking....as soon as the oil is all gone.
They don't use oil in them, they use Soy Sauce.... :p Like the Chinese power tools. First thing I do is take the gearboxes apart and flush out the crap they call 'grease' and replace it with real grease. Amazing how much longer they last with real lubricant inside.

Jack Oil gets lots of good reviews on Amazon. Lots.

Plus it’s pretty inexpensive.

Maybe it is worth a try?

Well, Mo, I tried it and liked it. It worked and no more leaks. The jack was pretty low on oil so I think the extra oil added might have helped but whatever the reason, the jack stopped leaking and it'a been over a week. Now I don't have to learn how to put an O ring in a floor jack.
