Did I do something wrong?

Duc

Did you put some fuel in it before you put it on?
They are shipped dry and don't like to pick up from the tank.

You can, pour a little fuel in the bowl vent (the pipe stick up) and start the engine and hope it picks up.
Or,
Attach something that can suck about 2"Hg and try to pull fuel into the pump.
