1991 Chevy Astro 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 100,+ miles

There is no fuel reaching the fuel filter. Took line off and there is no gas. New pump and it comes on. Is there a fuel pressure regulator above the take inline or something else to look at?

If you hear the pump running, you should be getting fuel. If it's not turning on, check the fuel pump relay under the hood in the relay box.

Replaced relay first, then filter then the pump. We droped the tank again and took the wire off as well. reconnected the electronic connection and added more gas after. Started up fine.
