Yep, it will drop like a rock when moving the valve, but the rise is very slow and you have to give it several seconds to "get going". Level increases faster with a higher idle.
I would look for thread about the valve rebuild procedure and pics. You can at least see if your pump/cam is assembled correctly.
If it isn't then the rear won't lift, and I, uh, know this by experience.....
