I think this stuff only happens to me and hydraulic tech is spotty on the internet at best.
So ....... I made some hard lines to replace the really long hoses that go all the way around the excavator It was working fine but perfect because the pump needed a rebuild but now with the new brass hard lines it moves really slow and the bucket cyclinder dose t move at all! I used 3/32 lines and 1/16 fittings. Could the hard lines to small? There not blocked so help!

It's very possible, especially since you state they worked fine before converting to hard lines!
