You started the same thread at 11:35 today. Why duplicate it?

Well I had and idea I would probably f something up in the process...I did. I had the backfiring, sputtering, sluggish & shutting off issue on this 08 EG/UC. I tried seafoam, high octane, octane booster & even replacing the new NGK plugs. Ok, dove into the tank with two left feet & a fist full of YouTube. After ordering a pump, regulator, gasket & filter because I was only going in there once (so I thought). clumps of liner I scooped out, the very little fuel that was still left was brown & most likely from the rust. Replaced parts in tank with the ones I got. Scratched my both heads assuming I knew where each hose went...I assume(d) I got it correct but its an ASSumption. I never removed nor purged the tank. I did use compressed air to blow what I could out. Filtered the good gas back into the tank. It ran for about a minute worst than in the past & then it shut down...can't get it started. - I've been away for over 24 hours because of work, I'm most likely going to siphon out the fuel & try to purge the pump, remove that main fuse (this time) & go at it. I need help in ID'ing what hose coming from where connects to where? I had a service manual on my small phone but if someone can use some crayons & lay (point) it out for me I would truly appreciate it. I don't have very many Band-Aids do please be nice if you want. Right now the only wheels going round & round are yours & the school buses...help!

First off Welcome to the Forum from Utah.

Second the Thread you just posted to is almost 3 years old.

If you want to do your own work it's a lot easier with the HD Service manual.
