AIR DOG 2 Help

I just installed my air dog and it runs i hear it on but no fuel pressure, checked everything and its correct. I disconnected the high pressure line and I saw fuel coming out....turned the regulator all the way up but no start... it did start for a while but then it acted like it ran out of fuel and died

HELP I WORK IN A FEW HOURS

Do you have stock injectors? I just put a little bit bigger injectors and did a sump kit and could not get my airdog2 to prime fill both filters right up and everything. Took it a part and all looked fine. Truck ran good for a little bit but then kept loosing its prime ended up dropping a brand new injector. Ended up taking the Airdog off and went to a Fass and regulated return and have not had any more issues

I've never had an issue with my ADII losing prime. That sounds more like a plumbing issue than a pump issue UNLESS you had a bad o-ring.

Not likely. I almost always have to fill and loosen a filter to get mine to prime. I was refering to Ooms221's comment about the Airdog.
