No Fuel

1986 F-150 302 EFI

New Tank, 2 new in-tank fuel pumps, and the truck has no pressure at the Schrader valve. Anticipating buying a new fuel tank selector valve will solve the issue. Anyone know where to get 1?

Are they in tank lift pumps that feed the high PSI pump on the frame rail?
A little more testing is needed before you can say it's the valve.
Do you have power at the pumps?


If so and you pull the hoses do you get fuel out of them?
If so where does the fuel stop at?
If at the valve then you are right on needing one but id it goes more then you have to see why it does not make it to the injectors.

As noted check to see if you have an on frame pump.

Then check the inertia switch to make sure it is not tripped

Next step is to check the fuel pump relay to make sure it working. Then the fuel tank selector.
Check the easy stuff first.

Went to Autozone and bought these https://www.autozone.com/fuel-system...ine/963502_0_0.

Hooked up the rear tank lines to the main line and it fired up and idled like a champ.
