But the pressure in the system won't go up until the front cylinders are pushing against something -- the pressure has to be the same throughout the system. That is, of course, if the hydraulic lines are open throughout the system. If they are not, which is why Grant had the idea of checking the front flex lines, things will definitely be odd.
