Have you installed clear fuel lines from the pump to the filter? Look at the fuel pump it has a weep hole, see if it's leaking.

best advice i have is buy a electric fuel pump from the auto parts store and work your way down the truck conecting it in different places when you connect it hit the schrader valve on the fuel filter and check for air you can narrow it down very easy that way my air leak was the fuel pickup somewhere its sucking air so im gonna pressure test it and find out

when you connect the electric pump you need to pull fuel from an alternate source other than the tank
