make sure the pipe fittings aint leaking, they look fine, but if the olive has moved or is jiggerd, they weap and let air in, just waddle the lines whilst bleading and have a nose
if you have changed the tank, then make sure the flair on the in and out on the tank aint cracked

it'll be draggin air in on the pipes where they have been disturbed

this problem just wont go away , i am sure that all connections are tight , lift pump seems to be operating ok, well its new and set up ok, still seems to be strugling to keep up with supply to engine though, still running dry after a few mins.
I will be dropping the tanks and having a look at sender , supply pipe next,  [-o<after that , anyone got any matches and a gallon of petrol.................. :evil:

check all the olives on the plastic lines going into and out of the lift pump and into the filter, you think they are ok, but they do leak without any signs of leaking
also, check the little filter inside the banjo on the leak off pipe on the fuel pump
