My rig has sat for quite some time . I drained the old gas out of the seperator ,it had a varnished smell . Anyway I hooked up a fuel gauge and the gauge shows 0 pressure . The engine will crank but it spits fuel out of an elbow fitting on the back of the manifold , This fitting has a hose which goes to another elbow fitting on the seperator . Any ideas?

Remove VST tank and clean it . It has a float internally and it sounds as if its stuck. Also clean filter on bottom of fuel pump. The fittings are for the bleed return and vapor removal fitting.

LTJG ,thanks for your reply. If the float is sticking would that cause the fuel pressure regulator to not have any pressure ?
