Car reads 0 fuel Pressure. When you turn ignition on you hear the pump kick on and it still doesn’t have pressure but when you start cranking it it will build to 18. Rebuilt the fuel pressure Regulator and it didn’t help. Has a walbro 190lph fuel pump not sure how old.

Rebuilt fuel pump regulator? Not stock regulator? What year/engine? Any modifications?

I would pull the tank and check the pump/hose. Mine had a bad hose between the pump and hard line in the tank. The fuel filter is good?

Yeah it was the fuel pump. The line blew a hole in it

Most of what I've seen/heard about was that hose splitting from low fuel in tank and sitting for extended time
