My first gut instinct would be that the system isn’t primed. You say you get a drip using that method, but what about the lines? Did you crack them and let fuel ooze out? If not you might still have air. Residual fuel makes its way to the injector but doesn’t really do much. No flow.
This is the beauty of the 60x pumps, you can see when it’s timed.
