Engine Mechanical problem
2001 Chevy Camaro 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 100000 miles

I just installed a new AC Delco fuel pump on my Camaro, when i turn the key to the on position I can hear the fuel pump fire up, but the car will not crank. I took the fule line going into the fuel filter off and turned the key on, and no gas comes out absolutely no pressure. I can hear the pump whining in the tank, I just can't for the life of me figure out why its not pumping gas

Inside your gas tank (Where the fuel pump sucks in its fuel) there is a baffle that sometimes gets clogged.

Also, your fuel filter can be clogged.
