    Facet fuel pump

    Just installed a facet fuel pump for an Atomic 4 on a 1969 Morgan 30. Pump operates but, no fuel in glass filter. Could not feel any suction at pump inlet. All else seems ok. Fram filter between tank and pump was full, likely from previous attempts with a differenf fuel pump. What did I do wrong?

    Which pump is it? (model)

    How long did you let it pump?
    If there's air in the line it takes a while to pump the air out and move the fuel.
    (If you have a "Priming Bulb" you can get things started that way)

            For sure checking the inlet? (just ruling out the obvious, don't mean to insult -- I've missed the obvious myself in the past).
