Default not working at all

so I bought a keg conversion kit from a different company (regretting that now for a few reasons, I'll buy from here next time I need something), and I'm 90% sure I've hooked up everything correctly, but when I tap the keg, I get maybe an ounce of beer into my cup and then no more. I'm sure the CO2 is flowing out of the coupler. Any suggestions?

You're sure there's gas in the CO2 tank? You're sure the gas is on? Valve open?

You've pulled the lever out and pressed it down on the coupler (do you see beer in the beer line?)

Any problem with the faucet?

Yes, the regulator is reading about 600 psi and I took it to get filled myself.
The gas is on because I can feel a constant stream of pressure when I turn on the coupler when it's not on the keg.
There is barely any beer in the line, so I doubt it's the faucet, but it's possible I suppose.
The coupler is the wing type, but yes, I am sure it is on, I've check a few times to make sure.
Thanks.

this is just my .02 cents here, as soon as you connect the coupler to the keg and lock the handle down, you should have a full line of beer. I have ran a couple glasses of beer just off the keg psi itself without co2 when I had excess carbonation in the keg
