>From your description I am guessing that although you say you are
getting pressure at the fuel distributer I don't think it is enough.
Some causes for this could include a kinked or collapsed pick-up hose,
a bad fuel pump, maybe you got the 2 hoses by the fuel pump switched
when you replaced the hoses, a bad accumulater, or a clogged fuel
filter. For further troubleshooting a fuel pressure gauge set-up might
help.
