Oil or fuel pump? Im fixing to put a fuel pressure gauge on it and see how many pounds its pushing. Ive been thru the return lines and main lines and no leaks, im thinking the mechanical fuel pump has weakend. It doesnt hold pressure as you know, and im not finding any leaks. It takes forever for it to get fuel to crank and then its like it looses fuel and shuts down.

Well I figured out the problem on my truck. The mechanical fuel pump had sucked the fuel up so hard it bent the casing between the inlet and outlet. I'll post a picture later of what it looks like.
