I had this same problem on the kids truck it ended up being the sock filter was clogged and half way up the sending unit reduceing the flow
I thought that to so I removed the pickup line and added a short (4 ft.) piece of 3/8 rubber line into a 5 gallon bucket and still no joy all the time. It is almost like it will pump a little fuel and then lose its prime and then pump a little and then lose its prime...
