Bolt-ons, stock fuel components
Last fall I picked up a beater and parked the stang for the winter. Still started it once a week and let it get to operating temps. Well about a month ago tried to start and it would just turn over. I pressed on the check valve on the fuel rail and had no fuel there, I checked te inertia switch in trunk and no problems there.
It had about an 1/8 tank of fuel in it so I thought I would put a few gallons in it and throw on a new fuel filter (cheap fix if I was lucky). Put on new MC filter and it started right up, running rough for about 2 min. then died. Same deal as before crank but no start.
I rechecked for fuel at the rails and all I got was a hiss of air. Has not thrown any codes, I havent heard the buzz from the fuel pump at all, have banged on the tank and no sound. Could I maybe have airlocked the lines by pressing the check valve?
I am a complete noob when it comes to ignition/fuel components, I basically know how to change the fuel filter and I know the pump is in the fuel cell....and thats about it.
