91 gmc turdburban, 5.7 tbi, wont start. Pressure tested with a gauge that goes on the filter exit, not between the line and tbi unit. Key on, needle didnt move, cranking same thing. Bled air out of line, got fuel going into a can, key on or cranking needle didnt move. Jumped power to the fuel pump relay, can hear pump running, needle doesnt move, but I can bleed fuel from the line off the gauge. This is the second or third new filter and fuel comes out clear. Tried starting with power jumped to the relay, still nothing on the gauge and still doesnt want to fire. I seem to remember tbi should be about 16psi.
Pump functional but tired?
Filter plugged?
Sock on pickup fucked?
Filter is easy, pump or sock issue both will get replaced.
Edit, tried all of the above testing with the gauge plumbed inline before the filter and still zero pressure on the gauge.
