Duncan Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 you know...I might just have been unlucky, but I have one of those, not too much use (just home, not workshop) and it is leaking. Really not what I was expecting for the price.

White GTS-T Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 That's not good to hear . But my local Snap-on man has been excellent with warranty/exchange in the past, with no questions asked. So I would have no qualms returning it if need be. Do you mind sharing where you got yours from? Is it just weeping from the seals or leaking badly?

Really not what I was expecting for the price. Mine leaks too. Back seal on piston. Bought a 3 tonne Omega at around the same time - no leaks.

TREGTR Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 every workshop jack ive seen over 3yrs that isnt serviced has had leaks. Thanks for that observation. How many workshop jacks are we talking about? My Omega doesn't leak and is a far better product in my opinion than the Bluepoint/Snap-on. I have both, as mentioned earlier.
