is there any fuel in the tank? idk if its possible but maybe the pick up tube fell off or maybe the mixing chamber screen is very clogged

are you E-fuel? for mechanical pump you might try opening the fuel drain valve and pressurizing the fuel filler at the tank with 5-10psi of air to prime the system. filling the tank will also help

I'm mechanical, I'll prolly just take it somewhere so it will get done faster, tired of messing with it, may look into a e fuel setup

If you put filters before the pump thats the issue. You have to run unobstructed line to the draw side of the pump, then filter between the draw side and the high pressure side. Those pumps arent designed to pull that hard

They did just fine on my idi, I'm using the same fuel tank and all, they are just the two end fuel filters, I think my wiring is messed up that's why I can't use the selector

So if I understand right, you are drawing from both tanks at the same time by bypassing the selector switch? Have you tried to only feed from one tank?

Only my front tank is hooked up, previous owner took out the lines for rear tank, bypassed valve, and put two inline filters in, but still no fuel going to fuel bowl,

And another odd thing..even when we put fuel In the bowl, it would not start at all

I'd start by taking at least one or both of those filters off while troubleshooting. If I had a filter per pump it would just be a "rock catcher". Putting fuel in the bowl probably isn't going to do much if you have air in the system. Any way you can get a bottle of diesel and get a hose feed directly to the pump to eliminate any issues with the stock system? If you do that, you may have to hit it with a little starting fluid to get RPMs up enough to prime the pump.
