Hello to all, trying to get a 1958 Powermaster up & running. Tractor runs like new, having problems with the hydraulic system. I drained & flushed the case out, rebuilt the hyd pump also. Pump is primed & flows fluid out of the pump but no pressure at pump. No hydraulic lift at all no matter how I move the draft or position levers. Anyone have a suggestion or what to do NEXT?? The tractor had set outside in the weather for a few years without being used or ran.

Thanks

Where are you checking pressure from the pump? If you have fluid coming from the hex bleed screw on the top of the pump, the pump is moving fluid and should be building pressure. Per the attached troubleshooting diagram from the service manual, check the flow control valve.
