Priming issue

Ok I cracked the lines like everyone indicated, but it seems as tho the LP is not puling any fuel, I would think that there is a pump inside the fuel tank that draws it to the LP, is there a solenoid or relay for this?

which rig? on the 05, there is an in-tank pump, but they fail frequently also. On the 99, there is NO in tank pump, so a failing lift pump would do what you are saying. Get a fuel pressure gauge on there and see whats happening. If the LP is dead (or below 5-7psi) then chances are that your IP has been damaged and will fail soon. Replace as a combo (consider the FASS DDRP) and get a gauge or at least a low pressure warning light on there.
