Good Day, Own a 1976 280z fuel injection and have starting issues. I replaced the fuel pump and installed a new fuel filter. I have 1/4 tank of gas with new fuel. I pulled the wire off the starter to see if the fuel pump is running and it is when turning the ignition key. However, I am hearing a clicking sound coming from the fuse box area which is puzzling. Also, I pulled off the short fuel line coming off the top of the fuel filter and put the end into a glass jar to see if fuel is coming out. When turning the key, no fuel is coming out. All Fuses are good and all hoses are checked for air leaks and nothing visible. Checked and cleaned ground wires, even the fusible links.
I did get the car started by spraying gas into the throttle housing and got it started but then cuts out. I assume probably because the fuel isn't being drawn from the fuel pump. Car had been sitting for about a year without any gas in tank. Any advice would be most helpful. Yes I do own the FSM and addendum on the fuel injection system but I am missing something. Thanks.
