quick! just installed engine and need to prime fuel
I just got my engine together, and I need to prime the fuel system.

how would I go about doing this?

I googled it and nothing came up. And there are not any ports on the fuel rail to tap into

Why do you want to prime your fuel system? Personally when I put a motor together. I want to crank it for a little bit before I start it to build oil pressure. Just by cranking it the fuel pump will do its job and fill the lines. If you need to prime the system without cranking it, take a jumper wire and jump terminals B+ and Fp in the black diagnostics box under the hood

there isnt a connector for Fp, but I can hear the pump come on when I start cranking.

But still nothing.

all of the wires are connected.


any ideas?

correction-

i have fuel
got spark


but when I put the timing perfect- it sounds like there isnt any compression.

any idea? I just took the right valve cover of to make sure I aligned the cams right, and they are- both dots meet perfectly.

the head it torqued, and im stumped

sounds like a cam timing issue if it sounds like you have no compression
