I installed the fuel hose kit for the fuel pressure sensor from Geno's Garage and then can't get the engine to start. I've run the pump multiple times and have gotten fuel to come out of 5 of 6 injectors at the end, didn't get access to no. 2. The pressure gauge reads pressure while the pump is running.

Help. Also get code 1693 which from what I can tell from other posts does not really have anything to do with no fuel?

Help.

When I had to do it (E means empty apparently) I loosened a few injector lines (#2 is impossible), bumped the starter and let the lift pump run a few times to fill the injector pump, turned it over until fuel came out the injector lines, tightened the lines (don't over tighten) and fired it up. It ran rough for a few minutes and then it settled out.
 
Make sure your batteries are fully charged, then try starting again WHILE HOLDING THE ACCELRATOR PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. Any time I've had air in the high pressure side of the fuel injection system on my truck, that"s the only way I could get it to fire.

Please let us know how things turn out.
