Symptom: "I'm driving along and the car slows down as though it is
running out of gas" ... it probably is.
Make sure your fuel pickup is not bending as you accelerate. I had a
problem once where the car would not run in forward but ran fine in reverse
and idled fine. I replaced the fuel pickup line (bottom of pump) and solved
the problem In my case, the stud in the bottom of the tank is missing
causing the old and tired fuel pickup to move around. It eventually kinks
and restricts the fuel flow. I now have a short stiff tube that goes
straight down with little option for flexing.
