Brake flex lines syn. rubber compound breaks down, flakes off and plugs lines and brake caliper fluid holes.
or:
master cyl. is leaking by from front brake section to rear brake section internally.
any brake fluid coming out bleed screw on either front caliper?

Did you put a new line on the driver's front, or was the new line installed elsewhere? Just a couple of days ago, I replaced a front line on my '97 F250 because the line had internally collapsed. The front, right line would allow the brake to apply pressure and wouldn't release. A new line fixed it and it works great. Perhaps a bad line is a cause of your problem.
If there is no fluid moving through the new line, try loosening the fittings between the master cylinder and the bleeder screw until you have an area that looses fluid when the pedal is pumped.
