Tried that, no go. I have fuel at the top filter, it's in the fuel rail.

QUOTE=BIG JOE;247323]Hmmmm.. Try cranking it ? With pressure on the Tank ?
This is the right method, need to keep positive pressure until you push that air out and clear fuel is headed to nozzles.

There's always the taboo trick...bottle feed it some sniffer gas from the can...but I didn't say it.:nono:
