Bad fuel filter?
Bad fuel pump?
Did you by chance have the flexible fuel lines off in the engine compartment? Are the properly installed?

Bad pump or your fuel filter is plugged.
Are the fuel flex lines crossed in the engine compartment?
Grab a new pump from here http://www.racetronix.com/

what do you mean crossed??
I don't think one would reach because of the different length of the hoses and fuel and return line...
so this would be a bad pump??
I will change the filter and have my tank cleaned also I've dropped the tank twice and will not be doing it a third time lol 100 ain't bad for labor just gotta buy a pump
thanks for the quick response and also for taking the time to look at my post I appreciate it
