Are you sure it calls for Hydralic fluid, the old tractors call for Gear Oil 90 weight and if its a really loose pump I would use the 85w 145 gear Oil. Check your specs to make sure that might be the problem

on my Allis 7000 the traction booster lever wasnt touching the control vaulve. so the tractor was thinking to bring the arms up instead of going down. if you oil the control vaulve and make sure each valve is touching and hooked up to a lever on the controls next to the seat.

I to had issues with my 3pt not going up and down it would work fine then for no reason it would stop and a few times it would not work at all if i cleaned both the filters it would work for a while and then stop again. i was baffeled until i found that the plastic filter located by the gear shift was getting cloged by some kind of gunk so i drained the hydro fluid and cleaned the bottom as best i could refilled it and volla it has worked fine ever since. the problem with this filter or strainer is that whem the tractor is running suspended gunk will clog the filter but once you turn off the tractor the gunk drops right back off making it seem as if it is not cloged but a good indacation of clogging is if the plastic filter looks as if is colapsed in the middle
like sucking air out of an empty soda bottle.

$500 for a pump is nothing. The one that went on my 170 was $1200 just for the pump
