Jeff, I=E2=80=99d try opening the valve & then pull the saddle up & let it g=

.  It is full of oil, and has worked well for the last 25 years or so.

I found a kit that seems reputable for $30 ( https://www.hcrcnow.com/shop/se=

lace doesn't carry oil.  I can get any number of different brands of jack oi=
l locally, so I don't think that's going to be a problem.

Any other thing I might check before I pull the trigger?
