I am considering on buying a parts washer, and on reviewing all the different brands of 20-40 gallon parts washers available, they all say to use water based cleaning solutions. I have a 5 gallon bucket of Berryman`s Carburetor and Parts Cleaner. Can this stuff be used in most of these parts...

I fixed the problem I had with the release valve. I had to take the valve back out and adjust the connecting rod. There is another step to do, but I can`t explain it in text. I would have to show a video on how I did it. But the jack is working great again. I greased the bearings for the rear...

Your jack looks exactly like my Sears jack. Same size piston and pump shafts. Easiest way to do this without a diagram (I didn`t have a diagram either) is take pictures of the order that the seals, springs and ball bearings come out in from each assembly. (for example; Release valve assembly...

I finished re-building the pump and put everything back to together. I ran into a problem with the release valve. I cant turn the handle left or right. The gears mesh fine, there is no binding or anything. The release valve turns fine when I installed it. I am wondering if the connecting rod...

Currently I have only two. My old DeWalt drill uses the huge 18v batteries. I am not going to buy anymore of those batteries or expand on the DeWalt tools. I am sticking with Milwaukee M18 Fuel cordless tools, so I don`t have to buy all these different battery platforms. I don`t yet have any...

I`m in Carroll County.

Thanks for the welcome.

So, I have a Sears model 875.501152 3-Ton floor jack that I am replacing all the seals on. I have a seal kit that is on the way from HCRCnow.com. I have a few questions that I hope Hiball or anyone can help me with. 1. A screen that goes in one of three holes between the tank and ram fell out...

Hello everyone! New guy here. I was searching all over the internet for info and help on rebuilding my floor jack, and I came across this forum. So, I just joined The Garage Journal and I am going to make my first post in the General Tool Discussion regarding a floor jack.
