What is the difference between a Hydraulic Jack and a Floor Jack? Why does the Floor Jack cost more?
Q. I am looking to get a jack for my car to do my own tire rotations. I already own Jack stands, but the Jack that is with the car isn't very good. I would like to get a Jack that is easier to use. I see hydraulic jacks are a lot cheaper than floor jacks. I was wondering what the pro's and con's are for each jack and if the floor jack is worth the additional money. Thanks.

A. Hydraulic jack is the kind of jack using a fluid to hydraulicaaly lift. Some are in the shape of a bottle (cheeper) that you would have to put under the axle to lift your car. The floor jack you can slide under from the side or back, making it a lot safer. There are several brands some of both are cheep for light duty use as yours.

Can a hydraulic bottle jack be used in a horizontal position?
Q. My recollection is that once the jack is in a horizontal position, then the hydraulic fluid does not pump properly. I want to build a jacking system to help me put down a hardwood floor. The last boards next to a wall are really difficult to get in place. I thought a hydraulic jack with a few attachments could be used to press the boards together.

A. It should work as the hydraulic fluid is in a pressurized container and has no where to go. If it doesn't work for you then maybe try an old scissors jack. Good luck and I hope everything comes out alright.

How much does it cost to replace the battery jack in a laptop?
Q. We think something happened to the battery jack on the laptop. If you wiggled the jack some it would charge, but not it just stopped charging and won't turn on. I don't think its the battery pack, I have a feeling its the battery jack itself, like it got jammed or something.
Asked by Kristen B - Tue May 12 11:06:22 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It depends - who is doing the fitting and what is the model and condition of the laptop? A new jack costs literally pennies. It is the fitting that is awkward. I have a laptop here that could really use a new jack and I am more than capable of fitting one. However, I am not going to do that. The laptop in question is quite old now and a lot of the plastic wiring looms are going brittle with age. They're quite happy when left undisturbed but I know from experience if I open the unit up there is a good chance that one of them will crack and the machine will be as good as written off. Instead I electroplated the power connector so it is slightly oversized which has solved the problem for now at least.
