Well lets start from the top. I wrecked my 91 lx 5.0. Then i got a 90 LX 2.3. I had both the cars so i deiceded to do the coversion. I got my 5.0 and super fords mag. out that did an article on the conversion. I did everything by the book without really running into any problems at all until now. I go to start it and nothing it just turns over. I cracked open the thing on the fuel lines where you put a guage on and the little sprit of air comes out and no fuel. I know the fuel lines were full of air becuase i had to switch fuel lines, but what i think the problem is is that the fuel pump is turning on, and i have no idea why because i didn't mess with any of that. So if anyone has any ideas of has been through it please help me.
