What fluid can be used in a hydraulic jack?

Should use jack oil, but you can use transmission fluid if you have to. 10W motor oil works also.


How do you adjust a hydraulic clutch on a 1989 jeep--- what i mean is you have to push the clutch all the way to the floor to change gears. is there air in the line is there a way to bleed the line?

hydraulic clutch does not have adjustment. replace the clutch it has a slave cylinder underneath and what you do is pump up the clutch and then hold it and have somone turn the line going itno th slave cylinder until you have clear fluid that is not how you bleed a clutch to the jeep owner, if you know how to bleed brakes on a vehicle, then you know how to bleed the clutch on a vehicle both done the same way.now if no parts of the clutch, such as master or slave cylander have been touched or let run out of fluid, there is still no need to bleed as that will not be the problem you might look at the linkage on the slave cylander. sometimes there is nylon bushing on the cylander rod that wears out. replace this bushing which is easy to do and your clutch will be good again.


Do you fill Jack oil into the screw on the side of floor jack?

Take top cover off of jack and there should be a rubber plug or a single screw that you take out to fill jack .


Floor jack leaks down It pumps UP its falling all the time it's going UP Its a 1.5 to 3 ton the jack lays on its side It has a pump plunger an Allen headed screw with a spring 2 balls a adjust scr?

The floor jack could have leaking seals. Or the jack could be low on fluid, or the pressure release screw might not be closing properly.


How do you connect hydraulic hose to clutch slave of a 1992 ford ranger?

Just make it snug with an open end wrench and bleed the line to remove air (make sure fluid reserve does not get low while bleeding).
