Why am I not getting fuel to the fuel rail?
A plugged-up fuel filter will cause an engine not not start. Get a fuel pressure tester and hook it up to the fuel rail. If there is still no pressure, then replace the fuel filter and retest. If nothing after that, then the fuel pressure regulator is not working and needs replacing.
Can you hear a fuel pump with no fuel?
These include a bad fuel pump relay or control module, a blown fuse, a wiring fault, loose or corroded wiring connector at the pump, or even an issue with the anti-theft system. These include a plugged fuel filter, pinched fuel line or a bad fuel-pressure regulator.
Why is there no pressure on the fuel rail?
If the pressure at the exit side of the fuel filter is normal and yet the pressure on the fuel rail is essentially zero, it’s possible the fuel pressure regulator has failed wide open, essentially preventing sufficient pressure from building.
