Holly blue-bled lines- no start

I just got done swapping in a holly blue up in the engine bay for a temporary fix until wed when the fass comes. I bled the lines, and get fuel on 1, and 3. ALot of it. No air either. I cant get the **** cummins started though. Any ideas? SUnlight is going quick and I have to be at work at 9am.

Munchies:

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge in your truck?? If so, what is the pressure reading while the truck is cranking?? I recommend you cycle the lift pump by turning the key and "clicking the starter" to cycle your lift pump or Holley and do this at least two to three times! Do this to get fuel back up into the lines and help push out any air.

You said you bled injector lines 1 and 3. I would tighten those up and slightly crack open injector lines 2 and 4 and be sure you are getting fuel there also. You can have air in those other injector lines as well and that can cause a no start even though you see fuel in the other lines.

Check valve? Theres juice gettin to the injectors.

No fire.

Vp44?



BAD CUMMINS!

IM calling it quits until the FASS shows up. I will re-plumb the whole truck, and re-bleed from there.
Hopefully the vp-44 with like 8,000K on it will be ok
