isx will not start cranking low fuel pressure

-- I reduce this torture to the starter and batteries greatly by pressurizing the fuel tanks to 10 psi or so and bleeding the lines, compu-check ports on the gear pump, etc. really well. I will then cycle the key in the dash and let the lift pump run about 3 times. ... then, here is the typical result...

Here is how long it took to crank and run Waterloo's truck the very first crank up after doing this ...

I.E.> It took a total of about 40 seconds of cranking time to get the fuel all the way to the injectors, even with all of the lines, filters, and the pump purged of air.

The in frame in the Master's driveway... First start...

She fired right up, just as Rawze stated, I have the video out there on YouTube, and filmed it real time, from the first turn of the key, Rawze is in the driver seat.

This motor was bone dry in regards to fuel, hell, it had sat for what, 4 months? The break in the filming was to let the starter cool, even though it was only 27 seconds.

The initial start, 27 seconds...
