    Hi mate and welcome to the forum.

    Give us a bit of info on your vehicle – petrol, diesel, model etc. It’s best to set all that up in your signature and then it comes up automatically when you make a post.

    Cheers

      I have changed the in tank fuel filter on my petrol NP. Since the car is not starting and the pump is working. The first thing I would check would be if the fuel line hoses were put on correctly. It would not be hard to mix them up.

        I assume you have a petrol engine. Years ago, my NL was converted to gas/petrol, and the guy who did the job stuffed around with the petrol pump bracket to stop it vibrating on the floor of the new petrol tank. Result was that I ran out of petrol after using 30L... He replaced the tank and reset the bracket back to original position, but when I was out on the West Coast of Tasmania, the pump fell off the bracket and pulled the discharge hose off. I could hear the pump running but the engine would not start fair enough - the hose was not connected. I suspect you may have the same problem. I finished up doing the job myself and then zip tied the pump to the bracket.
