Paul -- you may have a faulty (inlet) check valve (which might account
for the 'no fuel' problem you were having).
At the inlet you should be able to blow, but not suck.
At the outlet you should be able to suck, but not blow.
And yes, I went out in the garage and got personal with my spare pump
just to be sure this was true. Think I'll go brush my teeth.
