If there has been no deadheading of the pump, maybe just to be on the safe side work in a gauge to monitor the pressure on the new pump. People have had issues with the quick connects in the past causing problems, maybe a partial restriction is at work here? maybe also over pressure bypass issue.
before you get to carried away check the lever on the pto for damaged or sheared roll pins. and as far as I know all the hydro systems are self priming , it might take a min. or two. , but the pto is not powered by the hydros it s power comes at the first let off of the clutch pedal to get what ever spinning before the tractor gets power to the wheels.
I agree these radiators are thin so to much pressure trying to keep the anti-freeze in the radiator will make it split, I to added a recovery tank and kept the pressure low.
sorry this took so long but the only thing I see on it is .5 , I assume that is what the cap is rated to hold but it does not say what metric measure they are using . I have another Chinese tractor and it’s cap says .6 and again to what metric scale are they using to measure the rating. I check my parts book and they do not show the cap as a part if you want one you have to buy the whole radiator,,, just stupid,, stupid as eating a bat.
it is low 3 or 4 lbs I think . I have a 2006 Foton ft504a with a 50 hp quanchi engine, but if I remember right I got one at napa. If I can I will look at it for some numbers and get back.
I would make that call where ever they are easiest to get a wrench on and plan on to drain the oil out of it , unless you can come up with the correct caps to seal the system off.
