That your only getting fuel on one side of the carburator if it even has a carburator.

I was remis in saying carb, I should have said throttle body. There are two fuel lines going to the throttle body and I disconnected each one to determine if fuel was going to the throttle body, facing the engine the fuel line on the right side of the throttle body showed fuel coming out of the line when disconnected, the line on the left showed no sign of fuel in the line.

They are not individual feed lines. One of them is a pressure line and one is a return line.

You really need to use a fuel pressure gauge to determine if you have the correct fuel pressure if your having a starting problem.
