So I'm slowly narrowing down my problem. I think I ran out of gas or was very close to it and that might have been the original cause. I replaced the high pressure fuel pump and can hear it fire up on the first click of the ignition for 3 seconds. For some reason the gas is not getting to the vst.
When I pump the primer bulb the gas is flowing to the low pressure pump but I'm guessing it's not getting into the vst. When I depress the air valve on top and also open up the drain screw on the vst and pump the bulb I see no gas coming out. I will have to take apart the vst again to check this but it seems like no gas is getting into the vst.
I read about opening up the fuel rail valve, if there is pressure in my fuel rail would that keep the gas from getting into the vst? I thought that float valve inside the vst only shuts the valve when the gas is inside the vst, could that be the problem or is there something I'm missing?
The fuel primer bulb is okay.
The water separator inside the engine does not have water in it (the red ring is on the bottom)
Originally when I checked continuity on the fuel relay it tested okay.
The low pressure fuel pump should be okay, at any rate from what I'm reading it's mechanical and if I'm pumping the bulb the gas should be filling the vst.
