IP not filling with fuel after pump adjustment
Disconnected the return line, how much fuel should I be seeing at the connector on the hardline, there's barely any fuel build up.. Also appreciate the advice guys! I'm getting my flatbed on it Sunday and trying to get this b$&ch up and going before then and it seems I'm getting closer to getting it back up and running
Is it simple to replace? I'm going to do the ATF trick, I don't know how I messed up something that seems simple, I blame my dad and grandpa...both like to tinker even if it was fine haha
So crackin the lines, I start on the right front closest to the cab? finally got the time to work on it again..

So checked the filter,full of fuel...BUT took the cap from the shrader valve and pressed it to see if any sort of air or fuel came out and I got nothing..It seems like theres no pressure building up to send fuel to the injection pump,no fuel coming out of the hard lines and very small build up of fuel in the IP..I adjusted to just a quarter turn instead of the 2 flats I originally adjusted it too. Theres no sort of primer on these pumps is there?

Yes you should, supposed to see a certain amount over a set time period as well, so it seems like you are getting no pressure, Have you changed the lift pump, or better yet. How much fuel is in your tank?
Little under half a tank. I was told a lift pump might not be my problem,I just had it replace along with everything else about a month ago. The shop that fixed it has a mobile mechanic, might have them come out and take a look.
