Took pump back ,changed venders different brand same thing,took inlet to lift pump off blew air through line ,bumped key fuel shot out of top of filter replaced plug primed ran for 2 min.
do 1999 have an in tank fuel pump also ,stock truck,if so if the in tank pump is not getting power it wont run and lift pump could not pump fuel through line,where is relay for in tank pump.
Thanks

Do you have enough fuel in tank. Have you changed your fuel filter and drained the water from your fuel filter if so I would look for a new FASS lift pump.
