Archived Installed fuel gauge...truck won't start???

[sljohn]

Just finished installing an Isspro fuel gauge, using a tapped banjo bolt off the bottom of the filter housing, a NAPA cutoff/dampener and then straight to the gauge. I know it's a lot of line to fill to the gauge, and then the line from the injector pump that I had to remove to get the fittings on the bottom, but I've cycled the key and bumped the starter many times. The pressure goes up to 12 psi then when the pump quits it drops to 0. I tried to start the truck and it won't. I cracked an injector line, but nothing so far. Help!!! I need to move on to hooking up the boost and pyro.

Just didn't crank it long enough... it started fine after a few more cranks.

Something that can also be done is push the go pedal to the floor till it lights then let up to 1200 RPM's till it idles smooth.
