gas problem
 

i rebuilt the engine in my toyota and got it in and all the lines hooked up but the fuel pump won't get any gas. the line has gas in it but the fuel pump wont get gas through. its a new pump.

i was just wondering if you guys had any ideas on what it might be. thanks a bunch.

Is this A mechanical pump of electric ? What size engine ? What is the year of the vehicle .

if its an electric pump, did you take the plugs out.

Will the fuel filter go in backwards on these things??

I know an old VW I had did that to me once,
I didn't know they were one way flow and just threw it in line
I sure was proud of that first tune up... other than it wouldn't run, till I asked for help:)

Repo

sorry, i should have stated it earlier. it a mechanical fuel pump on a 1986 22r. i dont know if the filter can go in backwards but i will give that a look. gas goes through the line, unless its going up the return line.

did you remember the part on the cam that works the pump ? and also the spacer between the pump and head .

yea we got the part on the cam but i didnt know that there was a spacer between the pump and block. i guess i will have to look around for the part
