Air in line

Hi guys.
So I have a unit that is being a real headache. I'm having a consistent line of air in hydraulic causing foaming of the line that I release on the left side of the lift pump. No matter what I do, it keeps foaming. I put back the line and it doesn't allow any functions to go. No up or down, left or right. Just stuck. Any tips on what to do? Dozens of times, checking that everything is tight. No idea. Help.

I would reccommend doing a full hydraulic fluid flush. If that doesn't work there may be contaminants in one of the lines so flushing or draining each line might be required.
