Default No power to walbro 255 fuel pump

I recently swapped an F22B DOHC into my 5th gen prelude. Once i break in the clutch ill be installing the turbo setup. I am going to be starting it up NA for this first time this weekend, however i noticed yesterday when i got the battery hooked up and got power to the car, that the fuel pump is not priming. I've herd that Walbro's are pretty loud and i dont hear a thing. My pump worked fine the last time i drove it before i pulled the H22. So last night i went ahead and took it out, and put my stock pump back in.
(which probably has been knocked around and battered a little bit over the last 6 months). I still did not hear the priming. The main relay is clicking on, so i dont think that is the problem. It is a pretty straight forward install, so i dont see how i could have made any errors, but i guess its possible. I wouldnt expect that the pump would be bad from the factory, so if anyone has any idea what could be the problem please let me know. thanks

Brandon
