My hydraulic pump was working well but I was losing hydraulic fluid into the crankcase and so I pulled the pump and replaced the shaft seal.(appreciate everyones previous feedback) E verything else looks very good. The pump was in good shape. The gentleman whom I purchased the seal from inspected the pump and also said it seemed to be in really nice shape.
I"ve now got the tractor back together, I"ve changed the engine oil and completely cleaned out the hydraulic fluid reservoir and filter and refilled according to the original specs. I let the tractor idle with the filler hole open and worked the levers back and forth as spec"d to purge the system of air. NOTHING?! I did this for quite awhile...I tried putting the filler plug in to build some pressure and still nothing...tried again with filler plug out.
It seems now that the pump is not moving any fluid or something? There is seemingly no hydraulic response at all.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
