    Fuel Filter swap...No start

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    1.8 taq, verified no leaks. "Motor side is pointing towards motor, line with blue clip is on middle nipple in the back & line with black clip on the other one. While removing the old one I did twist the line with the blue clip a bit but immediately squeezed it back to the right form. Primed the fuel pump a few times & after 5 tries still no start. Put my fingernail in the Schrader valve on the fuel pump & barely any pressure came out. Any suggestions?

    Maybe mixed up the connections when reinstalling the filter.

    Are you positive you got the hoses in the correct ports? On the front side the skinny hose goes in the center port. On the back side the hose with the blue clip goes in the center port.

    Okay I'm going to check the front hoses. The rear is correct.

    The front clips were switched wrong even though I took them off the old one & on to the new one immediately
