After replacing seals in my nose gear hydraulic cylinder to stop  a messy leak, I am wondering  if it is a good idea to leave the plane sit  for a week or two with the system at 1000 psi. or would it be advisable to bleed off the pressure (cycling the flaps) to let the system relax? Would relieving the pressure extend the life of the seals or would I be creating a problem that I'm not aware of?  Opinions welcome...
