Gas Tank Plugged up???? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello All,
I am new here but have a question for all the been there done that folks.
My truck was running out of fuel, it has a 350 And automatic and is a half ton, anyway, I took the fuel line off at the carb and turned it over a few times and got very little fuel, just a slight drizzle. I replaced the fuel pump and it sent gas out good, then went for a test ride and it is acting up again, pulled the fuel line at the carb and it is only a drizzle again. I think the tank might be gunked up. I notice that I have 2 lines that run out of the bottom of the tank, one is larger than another, would this be correct? What is the best way to approach this problem, deal with it with the tank inside the cab or removed?
Thanks all in advance,
Rick
