Tc 29 will not rev up!

[porkchop401]

My tc29 started smothering down so I replaced the fuel filter after bleading the system at the pump and injector fittings it will not rev up . It will spit fuel from the injector line fitting and will lightly miss while the line is loose but it will not rev up. The linkage is connectted I am puzzled. Mike

Is the air filter ok?

Have you tried blowing air backwards through the fuel line? I had a similar problem where I went through all the usual exercises of replacing filters, etc., and none of those seemed to help. It turned out there was some crud clogging the fuel pick-up in the tank. Blowing high pressure air back through the fuel line blew it out, and everything worked fine afterward. After getting the crud dislodged, I drained the tank and saw that there was a bunch of debris in there.
