Just got this excavator hydraulic system flushed and 80 gal of new oil in it. took for a test spin and blowed a hose that goes to a final drive. Will it continue to leak until the tank is empty? 1998 model.E2039M

Good day
Yes the fluid is open to tank and will continue to flow, vent the tank and plug the line.
Kind regards

Thanks for the reply.....actually I guess it wasn't free flow from the tank! Dripped about 2 gallons in the 6 hours it took to replace the hose.
