The fuel return line, or the the line that pulls the fuel to the pump. I had a problem where the tip on the male ned of the quick distonnect had worn down/broken and when turned a certain way fuel would flow, but when turned a different way it was not compressed and did not flow.

Boomer, how much for 2 male connectors?

when I press the end of the return line fuel sprays rapidly like I believe it should. Could it still be the connector?

That means you are normally at very low pressure (or one injector possible), and when you clog the return by disconnecting it (not recommended) it jumps up to higher injector pressure and just masks other problems (for a while).

Like others have warned, keep that connected!. Instead look to the entire suction side for the likely problem. It seems you are not idling at normal fuel pressure, or only 1 injector is firing.

Alright problem solved. Injector wasn't plugged in all the way. I really appreciate all the help guys.
