Gear pumps are notorious for poor self priming... you need to get oil all the way to the pump in most cases for them to prime. That doesn't explain why you lost prime in the first place, but a bad "O-ring" or a leak in the suction (inlet) line to the pump would be a good guess. Parking it on a steep hill with the front down hill might help... anything to get the reservoir higher than the pump could help to locate the problem.
