That port is only active when the three point control is used.
It's not a good port to tie in a loader!
You need to add a block to the hydraulics and tap for the loader from it.

I got it over the summer from a family member that never really maintanded it. evrerything was working when I brought it home all I did was change oil and coolant then bucket stopped working and pulled suction tube filter out and it had 1/4" sludge all around it then changed hydraulic fluid and still not working thats why I thing there is still sludge blocking flow. Just trying to get it backl all operational so I can use it around the yard
