Attempted to finish up the body mounts today, but I guess my floor jack doesn't want to cooperate..............................

Symptoms, it will go up, but won't come back down. Well, it did come back down after I cracked open the cap to the oil resevoir and stood on the darn thing, but it came down slooooooooooowly. Also, the handle is hard to turn and doesn't seem to lock like normal........................................

So tell me what I should do and what to look for before I buy another jack.

There is some tech in bleeding a jack here:

I had looked around and could find a place that would rebuild mine for cheap after trying to bleed mine. I am now looking for a new jack.
