Default Help Problem with racetronix kit

Hi All,

I just installed a FPA-001 fuel pump with the FPWH-001 wire kit. Install went nicely, everthing went smoothly (I dropped the tank). I filled the fuel bucket and added ten gallons of fuel let stand for 10 min, tryed priming the system...but there is zero fuel pressure???

I can hear the pump run and shut off after a few seconds but again no pressure at all-zero.

any thoughts?

thanks

I dropped a line to the web master...hopefully that gets me on the site.

really would love some ideas on what to check next??

Things I'v looked at/ checked out. Fuel filter is new and can blow though it easy, lines are in good shape and clear.

Pump lines are not kinked...
