Most certainly takes a bit of cranking to fire.



Also be sure to let it run and look for leaks, as it stinks and leaking fuel in a engine bay can be very costly, maybe your life, just to add a little prespective. So make sure you get it all checked out, beofore you take off anywhere.

the fuel pressure, stock is ~38 psi with vac line connected and 42psi without it connected..



After the install, the car should pretty much crank right up after a second..



turn the car on ACC, look at the FPR gauge, see what it reads.. Fire it up.. voila..

Probably from the the fitting that threads into the FRP. Take it apart, and when you put it back together use the pipe thread sealant TAPE!

Could have been accidentally nicked during recent work, or kinked/bent until it broke during recent work.
