i tired to fix my floor jack myself but now it's weird. if i pump down then the saddle rises once, and if i pump up then the saddle falls back. So basically, the saddle humps up and down, does't go anywhere.. what should i doo

If you can't get your jack fixed email Sears and ask them to send you a diagram of your model. If for some reason you can't get it to work after trying I'll sell you my Sears 3 Ton jack that works perfectly for $50. I've been looking at the race jacks that have a base of 3" so I won't need my rollups....
