fuel problem...help me out ok...i'm in the middle finishing up my ls1 swap in my 98 camaro, come to start it up, turns over just fine but won't run. I have a mech. gauge on the fuel rail and there is 0 press. I have a walbro 255 kit from TSP and I can hear the pump run, i just changed the filter, but nothing. So I crack open the line that goes to the rails, run the pump, fuel comes out but seems like not enough. Could this be a voltage problem? or anything else that could cause this. just thought i'd ask before I drop the tank for the third time to check everything again.

Bad or loose connection between pump and the mounting plate and fittings? That's a tank dropping deal though. Pump picking up air? Filter backwards and collapsed? Checkvalve stuck? If you can hear it run and it doesn't sound sick, I'd guess the first one (loose hose between pump and mounting plate).

No you can remove the bucket. Sounds like the hose came loose try and double clamp. Or have seen the pumps wired backwards and they spin backwards. Make sure it pumps before putting tank back in.
