    Its your leveling valves so dont check the lines or the tank the valves are one way they have no way of releasing pressure back to the tank or lines there is a valve on the bottom that releases pressure these valves go bad after a while I my self would worry about it it wont put you oos but if you want to replace them the cost around $150 a piece and not to hard to replace
