Packed column on 7890

Hello,

I am trying to run a packed column on a 7890 GC.  As far as I know, the system is setup correctly in terms of hardware.  I am pretty new with packed columns on an Agilent GC, so I am not sure where to even begin in terms of method settings.

I am looking for optimal method settings.  I am running phenethyl alcohol as a standard with He as the carrier.  What are typical flow rates and oven ramps?

Currently, I am only getting a solvent front (MeOH) that is about a minute long and no phenethyl alcohol peak. Below is my current method.

Thank you in advance for any advise!
