I replaced my fuel pump, but I still have low to no fuel pressure, and my engine will not start.

Hello, do you have dual fuel tanks on your vehicle or just a single? And have you checked for power back at the fuel pump connector? I'll post some diagrams for you to check.

It’s just a single, and yes it has power, it will pump it just doesn’t have any pressure.
