Check the fluid?   ;D

What year is it?

I think there is a way to bleed those systems too, but I also know there is very little service that can be done on several of them.

The motor is a 1999 it works fine going up it only does it when it gets about halfway down. I can't see where your supposed to check or put oil in it and of course he doesn't have a manual. Any help with how to check or add fluid would be appreciated.

Thanks Tim
