How many kays has it done,it might well be time for a rebuild,and this is very expensive.

or maybe was a shitty rebuild, Cheap parts.
was told by a tafe teacher once that i think 500ml of hydrulic oil is 110% better than that stop smoke stuff but don't hold me to what oil he said
Has it been hot maybe rings stuck to pistons (Usealy from being hot) alowing to much oil to bypass the oilring or valve stem seals thats the main ones i can think off
