I'll keep at it... I just read a big artical on the fuel system apparently the sensor electrical wires that hook up to the fuel heater can leak air thru the plug part on the fuel heater, if you can even understand what I'm describing haha. Which my electrical lines were corroded and crumbled off my fuel heater...not sure if that could be a problem, it's all very frustrating, should I keep the fuel filter cracked open, that seemed to help when the old lift pump was on it allowed me to know when it was topped off.

You will need to delete the fuel heater, I think thats why its not pumping up ... its pulling vaccum and not fuel ... hence its not priming ..

I guess it's worth a shot, seems odd that my "old" lp was pulling fuel to the filter but the truck wouldn't stay running for more than a few mins with out having to re-prime. I just feel defeated.
