No Fuel in Filter

I've changed my fuel filter and tried to run the engine getting nothing, after taken the fuel filter back off there's no fuel in the filter.

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks in advance.

manually fill it with fuel, then refit it - pump the lever on the lift pump a few times and it should fire up

- if it doesnt, even after 30 seconds of turning it over do a search on here for how to bleed the fuel system

do a purge. ignition to pos II, pump the throttle 5 times, you'll the the MIL flashing and you hear the fuel pump running, wait for 2 min. it should stop. off the ignition. wait 5 seconde, put to pos II, pump the throttle 5 times till the MIL flashes, wait for another 2 minutes and crank for 20sec or till it starts, which ever is first.
