Blockage in the fuel line, remove the fuel line at the fuel pump, and use compressed air to blow thru the line from the feed to the fuel filter, if it blows thru then you dont have a blockage, make sure your fuel pump is coming on when you turn on the key, if not check to see if you have 12 volts at the pump when you turn the key on, if not check the fuel pump relay, if you do have 12 volts at the pump when you turn the key on, check the connections on the fuel pump or replace the fuel pump with a new one. make sure to disconnect the battery before removing the fuel pump.
