I just replaced my intake and I'm not getting the fuel to draw. I'm quite sure the fuel pump is on properly and the fuel line is not plugged. I blew air from the fuel line up front and there was definitely fuel in the tank. I blew air from the rear and I could not get any fuel to push thru. My next effort will be to add some fuel into the carb and get it to fire. How much can I add directly into the carb? Any other suggestions? Thanks
