Correct. I would think it shouldn't have a problem filling up the entire 3/8 fuel line, while pumping, but it is only pumping it out on half. I checked it against the stock pump, the stocker looks to pump just as much, of course it isn't under a load, but I would think it should pump more then it is... What you guys think????????

i had tons of problems with my walbro 255 and some ebay fuel pump, so i just bought a stock fuel pump and haven't had any problems. will a stock pump not provide enough fuel for your truck?

It is fixed, the sock, collapsed, was sucking to the bottom of the pump. I took it back off, just went out for 20 min, the pressure never dropped below 60 on a wot pull. Now I have to find another type sock.. I ran it with out that sock, it pumped way better, is quiet now. It doesn't have one now, but I will make due untill I find a fix..
