I did, it moves "a little" and with pumping builds up a little pressure, but
when bolted on, is not enough to move it... seems like air in it to me.

I have not gotten out to look at it today and see if it's any different
after sitting.

line to res is fine, worked before I removed the old one...

Thanks!
Tony.
