There should be a screw on the side of the jack--remove and fill until oil runs out of this screw. Make sure that the "ram" is fully retracted into the body of the jack

The honing equipment used has been manufactured by "Chris Marine". The head of the honing device consists of four synchronized stones. For the initial honing diamond stones are used to break up the hardened surface in the scuffed areas. For the main honing very coarse and hard stones are used to produce a very desirable rough surface all over the liner.

The advantage, especially for the 2-stroke engines, is possibility to save the liner after a seizure, scuffing or blow-by or even to eliminate the ovality of the liner. Another advantage is, that it is possible to machine a rough linerwall to obtain a well oiled surface.

A hydraulic accumulator contains a bladder filled with a compressible gas, usually nitrogen. The pressure of the gas in the bladder is known as the pre-charge, and will vary based on the ambient temperature. Hydraulic oil is pumped into the accumulator but outside of the bladder. As the oil is pumped in, the bladder compresses, which exerts a force on the oil. There is usually an pressure transducer in the system which will signal the hydraulic pump to turn off when a certain oil pressure is reached in the accumulator.

A hydraulic accumulator can have several uses. It can be used to store hydraulic pressure for later use. It can be also used as a type of "shock absorber" for hydraulic systems.

Thanks for the info. My top doesn't always go down, but of course today when I took it to the dealership it worked. Where do I find the conv. motor? (I've only had the car a couple of months.) 98' Mustang

Not sure if your motor is the same as mine ('71 Cutlass), but mine says the same thing: fill with Type A transmission fluid. Mine has a rubber plug on one end of the motor. All I have to do is pull that out (carefully so as not to tear it) and funnel in the fluid. After you fill it (until it runs out the hole) I would recommend running the top up and down a few times, then refill it. This should bleed out any air in the hydraulic lines. It's that easy for me...hopefully yours is the same. Oh, and I believe that Type A transmission fluid is equivalent to today's Dexron III or MERCON. Good luck!

Filling the reservoir until fluid runs out is a disaster waiting to happen. The reservoir should be filled with the convertible top in the lowered position and the final level should be approximately 1/4 inch below the bottom of the fill hole. Here's why: The reservoir is a buffer. There is always fluid in the upper and lower portions of the lift cylinders. When the cylinder rod is fully retracted, the reservoir is at it's highest level. This is due to the cylinder rod displacing some of the fluid in the cylinder. When the rod is extended (top raised) the entire bottom of the cylinder fills and reservoir level wiil be at it's lowest point. Imagine what happens if you fill the reservoir while in this position, and especially if you fill it until fluid leaks out. Hmmm, lower the top, level rises until there is no more room in the reservoir (or air volume is compressed until pressure blows the oring seals out). At this point, pressure in the reservoir will be greater than 300psi. (these pumps dead head at about 300-350psi) This means the main oring seal will blow out and the fluid in the reservoir will now be in your trunk. No one wants that.

This is a classic problem in hydraulic engineering. Three reservoirs are connected by pipes. All the reservoirs have surfaces at different elevations.

Given the height each reservoir and pressure loss in each leg of the pipe network, liquid will either flow into or out of each reservoir.

If you apply the Bernoulli equation from the surface of each reservoir to the pipe junction, you end up with three nonlinear equations in four unknowns (the flowrates in each leg of the piping network and the total pressure head at the junction). An additional equation is supplied by applying the Continuity Law at the pipe junction (i.e. the sum of all flowrates at the junction is zero if there is no outflow).

This now gives four equations in four unknowns; no analytical solution is possible. You can solve the equations iteratively, however, using a tool like Excel. See the spreadsheet in the related link for an example

unfortunately Saturn went out on a limb to produce easy swappable parts in their cars. the clutch hydraulic system can not be bleed. it was intended on being replaced as an entire unit, filled with fluid and bleed at the factory. I've made many trips the salvage yards to obtain a entire assembly.

A hydraulic pump uses an external mechanical force to pressurize the hydraulic fluid. A hydraulic motor uses the pressurized hydraulic fluid to apply a mechanical force an external machine.

A limited rotation hydraulic motor provides a rotary output motion over a finite angle. This device produces a high instantaneous torque in either direction and requires only a small amount of space and simple mountings.

Rotary motors consist of a chamber or chambers containing the working fluid and a movable surface against which the fluid acts. The movable surface is connected to an output shaft to produce the output motion.

Figure 4.1 shows a direct acting vane-type actuator. In this type, fluid under pressure is directed to one side of the moving vane, causing it to rotate. This type of motor provides about 280° rotation.

Rotary actuators are available with working pressures up to 350 kg/cm3 (4978 psi). They are typically foot mounted, flanged or end mounted. Most designs provide cushioning devices. In a double vane design similar to the one depicted in the figure above, the maximum angle of rotation is reduced to about 100°. However in this case, the torque-carrying capacity is twice that obtained by a single vane design.

faulty lifters at the best will rattle, at the worst they will not lift the valves properly . valves not opening and closing properly will greatly interfere with the proper running of the engine.can also cause a push rod to come loose and fall into the engine, breaking or bending other parts

A rotary flow divider is essentially two hydraulic gear motors of equal displacement that are mechanically linked (the output shafts are coupled together). When fed from a single line, they must both turn at the same speed because they are linked and becasue they have equal displacement they therefore use the same amount of oil, hence evenly dividing the input oul between the two motors.

My thoughts go like this...(from watching 'Scrapheap Challenge"0 plus a little basic knowledge of physics.

1/ Pneumatics involve the movement of pistons and what not via the medium of compressed air or air under pressure.

2/ Hydraulics involve the movement of pistons and what not via the medium of compressed fluids or fluid under pressure.

3/ Fluid is denser than gas (compressed air).

I believe hydraulics can handle far heavier loads than pneumatics.

Pneumatics would appear to use a lighter more flexible medium than hydraulics.

In answer to your question, I believe hydraulics would be far more effective at manipulating heavy loads versus pneumatics.

However, pneumatics would be a more flexible system than hydraulics.

Hows that?

It has hydraulic lifters that are known to get noisy. Mazda sells a shim set that can be installed under each lifter to reduce clearance so that the lifters don't require as much pump-up travel. The lifters are located in the ends of the rocker arms, replacing or shimming them requires the removal of part of the intake plenum. You can also buy new lifters in the aftermarket for about $20. each, but there is 12 so it's not exactly cheap.

Pile foundations are typically much deeper than they are wide. This means that their ability to resist loads is mainly derived from the vertical friction of the side of the pile against the soil (skin friction). However it should be noted that a number of closely spaced piles will act as a group and as such can also have significant resistance to loads by end bearing.

Regular foundations rely on the bearing pressure between the soil and the underside of the foundation, they are cheaper and more common. Piles will be used when greater forces are needed to be transferred to the ground over a smaller area, such as with high rise buildings and those in densely built up areas where land comes at a premium and ground movements will affect neighbouring buildings. A pile can be thought of as analagous to a tent peg whereas an ordinary foundation is like a flagstone.
