Indeed, if you had the same effort as your wife's spring-only Explorer mechanism, then your shock effect had gone poof somewhere in the night.
These are damped tensioner shocks, and the oil serves the damping purpose. But like any shock mechanism, they can lose their damping ability over time.
The oil is NOT merely for lubrication.
The damping must not be all that critical, though, since later Saab tensioners were spring-only affairs.
