92 f250 2wd 7.3 idi
i have a 92 f250 7.3 idi i had to replace a foot section of fuel line with rubber fuel line. the fuel filter went half dry i pulled it off 3/4 times and had to fill the filter up from half and the truck will run for a second then drain the filter half way and shut off. i keep topping the filter off with atf but it wont stay full how do i fix this. is it possible that air is still in the line

I would definitely say lift pump, or, how low is the fuel tank, I'm having pick up tube issues so mine doesn't get fuel out of the tank once it's below 1/4 tank. If your lower than a 1/4 tank you may also be having pick up tube problems in your tank, the last part is plastic and they dry out and crack.

Very common for the lift pumps to crap out, Installing an inline electric pump would be a good move

It will be hard just due to the fact that it's an awkward place. Other than that it is straight forward

forgot to add that a healthy lift pump should put up to about 4-6 psi, an below and should replace

sounds like air intrusion to me ... do you still have the filter below drivers door on frame ?
also an electric pump should feed about 8-10 psi @ fuel filter inlet ..
It sounds to me like either one of two things .... pinched fuel line or fuel shut down sloenoid in IP is weak and not allowing it to stay running .. even with just 3 psi it should at least idle ...
