On mine that I bought locally, it is usually down within
48 hours. That was when it was brand new. I have since
used a pipe to wedge between the bottom of the jack and
the arm and while the pipe gets slightly bent, it does
hold it up. the engine I'm holding up is a small 1.5
liter econobox engine. It comes out to get the timing
belt and seals changed every 60k miles.
