Pickup Pump Problem 7.3

I have an 89 F350 Crew Cab Dually with a 7.3 and an A/T behind.

My problem is we just put a New Carquest Brand Pickup/Lift Pump on it today and cannot get it to Pump fuel up to the Filter. We removed the fuel line going into the fuel filter and attached a manual vacuum pump to it and using it we had no problem pulling fuel up. After removing the vacuum pump and turning the motor over a couple of different times, we still could not get it to pump fuel up to that point.

Hope someone can help me figure out what my problem is...

Indeed, it is very difficult to repair the motor. In comparison to other parts of the car, this is really a challenge which requires good experience and a qualified specialist. It is almost impossible to carry out such repairs independently at the proper level. My brother also decided to become a good minder and to understand all types of car repair. He even got a specializing education in this sphere in the university and finished a special program to become an auto mechanic https://www.vocationaltraininghq.com/how-to-become/plumber/. But even he does not undertake such work.
