changed fuel filters-now won't run

I am in the process of putting my spare engine in my car. The engine has not run in 6 months.So I thought I would change the fiilters and get it running before I changed it out. Changed filters-with hand pump,pumped fuel through top of main filter.Walked away for a day and did it again. After all of the air is out,closed bleed screw and pumped 150 more times. I thought I heard a buzzing sound. Tryed to start engine 4-5 times. Broke the lines coming out of the IP and there no fuel coming out. There is a lot of fuel coming out of the top bleed screw when you hand pump it. What am I doing wrong?thanks.
