Have you considered taking it to a hyd shop for testing? They can tell you the volume and pressure the pump is capable of producing.
Have you put a hyd gage in the system and checked the pressure.
Although the cyl will self bleed, if you hae a suction leak, you are adding air every time the pump is running.
Does the fluid in the tank have bubbles in it, and do they go away over time.
If the fluid is clear, start the tractor and monitor the tank for any new bubbles. If there is a suction leak, you should see them appear. A flash light will help some.
What did the filter screen look like? Small metal flakes indicates some wear is going on, but did they come from the pump?
