Help me figure why my truck is starved for fuel

Just kidding. Even I figured this one:
WTF>>>tested it on the side of the road. Fuel going into filter... none coming out. Just when I thought I had addressed about everything on this hunk of steel. Well I thought the gas gauge has been playing games(no wonder with that float) so I took the sender off. THE HORROR!!! Sooo found a $35.00 pristine tank in pic-a-part. A new sender from Manes and presto, brought Ol' Bob back to life.
Observe the stuff that came out of the filter inlet.

Re: Help me figure why my truck is starved for fuel

hey what size line is it coming out of that??? My caddy engine is starving and I wasn't sure if I had to replace the lines or what ..it wouldn't make sence to me to upgrade the lines if the fuel sending unit is tiny?? mine is behind a tank panel so its a PIA to get a look at it?
