Car won't start, 0 fuel pressure
I understand this is a seemingly trivial issue, so TIA.
Just completed a clutch install on a 99 WS6. The car hasn't been driven in 4 years, but I would start the car up once or twice a month. Before doing the install, I could start the car up fine but it would hesitate/stumble when pressing the gas.
Clutch install is complete, but now the car won't start. Fuel pressure gauge reads 0 psi and I can hear the fuel pump prime when key is in the ON position.
Fuel filter was just replaced, and the fuses aren't blown. I have already cut a trap door when I thought the fuel pump was bad a couple of months ago, but it was just a cracked rubber tube.
Seems obvious that it's a bad fuel pump? Are there places that the line could be blocked up?

Looks like the fuel feed tube has a crack in it. I see that Racetronix sells these tubes, but there are many different size options. Will this tube work on an OEM full pump? If not, can someone let me know where I can buy one?
