I am aware of the difference in flow and pressure and I will get a pressure test. Just thought that considering the force of the oil coming out when I opened the connection, That I should see something move a little. Actually, the first time I tried the lift before working on it, the lift didn...

I checked the pressure relief valve it is seating and all looks OK. There is no weight on the lift arms. I can raise and lower them by hand very easily. As stated above, I do have pressure although I don't know how much. Moving the position lever from one extreme to the other does absolutely...
