Sound silly but is the fuel pump wired the correct way round (electrically?)?

As no fuel will be pumping?

Also have you conneted up the brake booster hose that goes from the inlet maniold to the brake servo? If that hole that the pipe goes into the inlet manifold then you wont get head pressure and it will struggle to start?
