Hooked up the fuel tester, turned the key to "run", waited for the pump to finish priming, then read the guage. I saw 0 pressure. Removed the intake hose, opened the throttle plate, and sprayed starting fluid in the throttle body. The engine started right up and ran for a few seconds.
I replaced the fuel pump and filter a few years ago. The line from the tank up to the driver's seat was also replaced. Could a bad fuel pressure regulator prevent starting? Is it safe to bypass it for a quick test?
