I have replaced all the electronics, the pumps and filters, truck runs like a champ, then it starts acting as if out of fuel, although there is pressure and fuel on the rail, 1987 1/2 302 injected it gets great fuel economy, and hs tons of go, but I can't rely on it cause it keeps acting like no fuel Help

Have you pulled the codes/asked the computer what it thinks is happening?

What does acting like it's out of fuel mean?
Is there pressure on the rail when it's acting up? What is that pressure? Do you have dual tanks?
Did you check the wires supplying power to the pumps? Those have given me issues before.
Oh yeah, and pull codes too.
