The tractor should be fine running right with out being connected ?
Just to be real clear - Until you get a loopback hose installed you can't start the tractor to drive it over near the plow.

If the tractor and plow are still close enough to re-attach the plow's disconnects back onto the tractor - then in that case the fluid would have a return path, and you could test the pump.

Don't start the engine without some sort of a loopback path for the fluid.

Great! Thanks for clearing that up! After I dropped the plow I did drive it around some. I didn't know

will be interesting to see what if anything you broke by doing this. Looking at your pump, I don't see where a key would go.. Hoye may have been able to answer this for you

The pump was dead headed so key will be sheared. If it isn't the pump probably copped it and may not pump properly.

Today I will take the pump back out and look for the key. I will take pics.

The other thing that is weird is that I do not see the o ring or the gasket from pump to motor.

I see the key on that pump as well but there is no slit on that nut for a key.
