Well heck!

Just redid all my fuel lines on my 84 westy and replaced the injector seals at the same time and was very proud that I didn't break anything while doing it.

So this morning after doing one more check on all the fittings I hooked the battery up, turned the key and ..... no start! I get power to the fuel pump etc but the started doesn't do anything at all. I know that the battery is in full charge and that the starter is good. Have I knocked one of a zillion connections off or broken a wire or both? Since all the fuel lines are empty.... is there anything in the system that senses that and won't allow the ignition to kick over?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

TIA Bob 84 westy Das Bus
