OK, I'm trying to fix my Floor jack, the problem is when I tighten the
handle it doesn't come to a stopping point, the handle keeps turning
and the release valve is left open, I've first couple of parts and now
there is a square hole and I assume a ball barring, I have no idea
what do do from here.
Any advice or help would be great, thanks.

see if it will pump at a certain point when i find where it will start pumping
it is fine but will have to do the same thing when letting it down and
sometimes will come down really quick
any help will be appreciated
