MF 240 old tractor

NEED HELP!!! I had left the tractor to sit for about a month, it ran like a champ no issues before it sat. Went to start it up today and I have no fuel response but the fuel pump has been working as well as the tractor now won’t start since I had turned it off once again. I had bled every gas line and injectors as well as putting emergency diesel additive in. Another issue is hydraulic fluid is foamy as well as pump is screaming when running. Thanks in advance!!

Rear hydraulic line mysteriously disconnected?

Hey all, I hope you guys had a great turkey day. This morning as I was getting ready to use my Massey Ferguson 1240 to lift an engine to the other side of our barn I had an issue with the front 1246 loader. It was only going up maybe 1/2 way then getting stuck. It's a crisp 32° here in Michigan so I figured frozen fluid and let it warm up a bit more. But still nothin. I then decided to do a walk around and check for leaks and when I made it to the rear of the tractor I discovered that one of my four lines was disconnected. It is a ball bearing connection that's covered so I'm very confused on how this happened. Got it fixed with pliers and a hammer but I'm wondering what I should do to prevent this from happening again?
