Also, it sounds dumb, but... did you bump a diverter value in the process?

I don't believe it has a quick disconnect. I changed the fluid two years ago; there was no indication of air in the system then . Could it be the pump or a clogged filter?

How old is this loader to not have a quick disconnect on the hydraulics?

My Yanmar 1977 model. TYM today the Hyd oil pan was super nasty!!! And stunk INKY. bad. Had a couple inch thick of what looked to be Crisco in a can. The filter screen was in such bad shape I had to replace it. Whale oil had to be. Pre. JD303 To clog up a QC. is doubtful. The fluid would have or had something in it for that to happen. JMO.
