How many miles on the truck? More than likely your screens in the tank are clogging.

I'm on my phone at work now but do a search for "hutch mod" and you'll see all sorts of links. It's pretty simple and you'll be amazed what's in there after all the years and miles. I can post a link later if needed

Good catch, I have no knowledge of the OBS fuel system. I'm sure one of the mods will move it to the appropriate section.
