What you are describing sounds like a restriction or air leak in the pump inlet.
I would first attempt to locate the suction strainer the Clagg referenced.
On most tractors the same pump operates the FEL and 3 point. How many hoses or lines connect to the FEL valve?
Not sure how your tractor is made but some models have a block usually under the seat that directs oil to FEL or 3 point.
If possible I would suggest that you start tracing the lines from your pump to see where they go. Does the pressure line go directly to the FEL valve or some block on the transmission housing?
