I was driving home from work and the truck started to act like it was starving for fuel. Press on the pedal and it would lose rpm's and power. Let up and it would get both back. You could go to a certain point and go any past that and it would lose rpm's or die. It's to the point that it's on the side of the road and won't start. I just replaced the fuel filter to see if that would help and it did, I got 3 miles and it died and won't start. Still had a heck of a time getting it started and it still acted like it was starving for fuel. Pump is 2 weeks old and comes on with the key, builds pressure, and shuts off. The truck was running great up until now. I can't see how any dirt in the line would get past the filter, and when I had the filter off I cycled the pump a few times and fuel came out fine. The pump also had good pressure up until this happened. The truck started alot better after the pump was replaced, which I figure was good pressure. May have to do a pressure test or something.
Should add it's a 1997 GMC Sierra with a 305
