No Fuel at Injectors

I have just replaced my 2 fuel pumps and fuel filter and have fuel going to fuel distributor. Took all 8 injector pipes out of distributor. Opened air intake and fuel rises equally up in all 8 outlets of the distributor. Fuel also returns. Crank over engine and no fuel at injectors connection. I am waiting for new petrol tank so running supply and return from petrol can. Any suggestions please.

no fuel at injectors

Hi. Update on my 500 SL 107 fuel problem. I bypassed the fuel relay and ran live so pump is on all the time. Open all pipe connections at injectors and then opened air intake. Fuel was coming out of all injector connections. Put fuel relay back, turned the ignition on and pump worked as it should for a few seconds, cranked engine over no fuel at injectors.
One thing I have noticed on the fuel accumulator. I can blow through it one way but not the other. Is this correct? Any ideas please
Dave
