I figured that also as the engine is not fuel injection ,, I do have a fuel filter and it looks good ,,it's the glass one you can see the filter inside.. I will replace it anyway ,and go ahead and change the fuel pump .. , .. the truck has a fuel cell Aluminum tank at the rear .. The Engine is 1978- 350 with an over haul with 28,000 mile on it . What are you refering to about a sock.. is that a fuel filter? The truck has a tank at the rear as the saddle tanks have been taken out and the gas doors welded shut and smooth sides now ,
Thx for the advice
