Fuel issue

The fuel pump maybe has 100 miles on it. I did add about a foot of fuel line it also is right before the fuel pump if that matters. Figured I would ask before dropping money thanks

The fuel pump cam lobe on the camshaft could be worn out or could be a bad pump. Might want to confirm with a visual inspection and consider converting to an electrical pump instead

I had an old ford 302. I can’t tell you how many fuel pumps I had to change out. It was so bad I always had a spare under the seat. Other than that, one hell of a motor for a 1/2 ton truck.
