     Good Morning!
     
     This past weekend, I anxiously put the manifolds and carbs back on my 
     '76 TR6 after sandblasting and repainting the parts; making them like 
     new.  I installed a new air manifold (the old one was less than 
     useless, at best).  Hoses and spark plugs were also replaced.  I 
     thought with all these improvements, my TR HAS to run better, right?   
     
     WRONG, and thanks for playing!  :o(  Now it's not getting enough fuel. 
     I have a clear fuel filter before the carbs which is visibly not 
     getting enough fuel to fill the filter half way.  It won't turn over 
     and just runs the battery down.  
     
     I have a new fuel pump on order (good idea to replace anyway), along 
     with new points and condenser.  Does anyone recommend something I 
     might be overlooking??  In the past, it has run only after 
     considerable efforts to start it.
     
     In advance, I appreciate your assistance.
     
     
     Frustrated...
