If you have fuel coming out of the banjo then the pump is already primed, and you don't need Mityvac or anything else. Unscrew timing screw and see if hand cranking, or short starter cranking, gives you a gusher. If not you have solenoid problems. You may get fuel due to the fuel pump you have attached.

Try the above, and also try Reg's technique of turning in the max fuel screw say a turn.
i got this pump. http://www.vwdiesel.net/forum/index.php?topic=29981.0

My max fuel screw is all the way in till it starts to run away now.. Ill give one turn back. Do you think something in the area of the max fuel screw gets stuck?
I tried everything you guys have told me with my TD Pump, No Luck. No fuel at injectors. No fuel coming out the timing hole. I got the N/A pump today in the mail. Im going to try that this evening i hope to god it works! If not ill be sending my TD pump to Giles in CA.Todays my day off so i got all day to fool with it. Well until it starts raining again which it has been almost all day.Well Thanks guys for trying to help me! Now i just want to put some C4 under the oil pan LOL
the fuel collar is the circular thing that sits around the plunger. its the actual injection quantity adjuster.. the governor directly controls the fuel collar, and if its not seated properly, then your pump will never build enough pressure to deliver fuel.

Im pretty sure the pump was put back together right. But anyways im going to send it to DFIS in portland ive heard great things about them with TDI pumps. They are fairly cheap also.

Before you take such drastic action, are you sure that the work you've done at the solenoid led to it opening correctly? If the plunger was sticking you would get the symptoms you have now. The spill sleeve would do this too, as well as a physically snapped piston. This can be checked by removing timing screw, and inserting either a gauge or a nail, and watching it move 2mm with hand cranking engine

And how would i solve that? I have taken the solenoid out and charged it. Engages like it supposed to. Your saying if the piston is physically snapped it wouldnt move any? Mine moves alot from the last time i timed the pump.
