2. There are Softail Heritage models
3. There are Electra Glide Touring Models
4. There is a Electra Glide Police Standard
5. Standard models come with a carb, so no fuel pump.
6. Heritage models come with a carb, no fuel pump.
7. Electra Glide Classic come with a fuel pump.
Figure out what you have and report back.
If it is fuel injected your next place to look is the Induction Module Assembly.
Do you have a H-D Field Service Manual? If not get one as there will be trouble shooting guides in there.
Oh and welcome to the forum.
NOTE:
The above information, while credible, is worth what you paid for it and should not be considered gospel.
Do due diligence, research and have a H-D Field Service Manual before working on your bike.
You will probably have many opinions and suggestions presented; make sure you research the person providing the helpful information as there are some who provide good information that is useful and some who speak out of other orifices with gibberish. You will figure out this quickly.

Yes I am aware of that as he stated such in his post
And he said he replaced the fuel pump and filter so I would assume it has fresh gas.

Just a question. But you don't need to drain the bike to replace fuel filter or pump, the way I remember it. But it's been a few years. I think I just ran it low. But I can't remember for sure.
You ever replace a fuel pump?
I asked about gas cause it is the last simple thing. It want starting, so not sure how long had been sitting, which may be the next question.
He did some things and it is starting to run. So makes me maybe think fuel related, but wild guess.
