i didnt want to make a new thread about this but screw it im tired of reading and reading and checking to solve nothing...

ok i relocated my stock fuse box and relay box to the interior EVERYTHING works, but the car has been sitting a few months maybe 8-9months.

now when i turn the key to the ignition the pump, which is a walbro, makes the whirring but rapidly make a gurgling sound, i check all the power and everything and it has power everywhere, when you take it out of the fuel tank it whirs regularly no problem sink it in gas and it whirs then makes a gurgling... is this a electrical problem or is the damm fuel pump going out????

i have a fuel psi gauge and it reads bout 60ish psi, then when i crank the engine it wont start... soooo... any help would be recomended

i already checked per FSM the fuel pump, injectors, coilpacks, most of the harness, relay, fuse and even checked all other wiring just in case...

i just want to start the car so i can have my daily again...

Are the fuel lines going the right direction?

Check and see if fuel is coming out of the line by the FPR.

Then go from there.

No. FPR is return. Filter is feed.
