What kind of fuel pump did you use? Have you measured the fuel pressure?

So no idea as to the brand of fuel pump? It matters. As I like to say, you install an Airtex fuel pump when you want practice changing fuel pumps. I will only use OEM, Carter, Delphi or AC Delco fuel pumps. Your local parts store can likely loan you a fuel pressure tester.
