So I just installed a new electronic fuel pump. All lines got drained when I took the old one off. How do you go about primeing those lines with fuel. I can crank it with starting fluid but there is no gas getting to the injectors and it will eventually shut down. Is there a trick to it?....Thanks in advance.

If you pulled the tank, then the lines may be kinked. Use the access hole above the steering rack to check.
You also may have mixed up the fuel lines. Here's the flow path of the fuel: 1. Tank to pump. 2. Pump to passenger side fuel rail. 3. PS rail to DS rail. 4. DS rail to pressure regulator. 5. Regulator to tank. I'm assuming you've installed a fuel pump with one inlet/one outlet? Or was it the three port pump? |
