Default replaced tank, now im not getting fuel.

My tank had a lot of rust and was starting to leak when I filled it so I finally bit the bullet and put a new one on. The project went pretty well, everything is hooked back up and I've got enough gas to register on the gauge, but now it won't start. I thought it through several times and I'm positive I hooked everything up, and I can hear the pump going when I turn the key. I loosened the pressure tap bolt in the top of the fuel filter where it will usually squirts fuel and nothing comes out, even after letting the pump run a whole bunch.


This is a 93 DX, any ideas?

~~SOLVED~~

The sock filter on the end of the pump had gotten caught in the old tank. once I fished it out and put it back on the pump the car started up no problem.
