Fuel Tank/Pump Issues - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Using behind seat EEC tank in my 1972 C-10 3/8 line to pre-filter (100 micron) out to Pump (pierburg), to post filter 35 micron) to 5.3 vortec treuck intake fuel rail. 5/16 return linr to sender return line.

Problem: fuel pump starves intermittently.

Since I have a pre filter, could I remove the sender sock/strainer?

i am thinking the pump might be trying to draw the sock in.

Any one experience this problem?
