did you disconnect from the tank or below the vacuum petcock? There is a vacuum powered petcock on most of these, it does not open unless the motor is turning over ...

I disconnected the fuel line before the filter

1 line is the fuel, and the other from the petcock is a vacuum, to open it. Take both lines off at the other end, and suck on the one that shouldn't have gas flow.
If no gas, clean tank, or replace petcock.
If gas, you have no vacuum to it, verify line is good. If so, bigger problem.

I went and looked at the lines and couldn't believe how many lines come off the carb.my Harley has one line going to tank to carb.what are all these little hoses going into a t pollution?
