My 88 sat that long as well. Remember this year had 3 pumps. low pressure in tank and high pressure on the frame. I eventually turned mine in to a one tank truck. I got a resivoire off a bronco. I use it with out a filter. That old gas can gum up fuel pumps. I replaced both of mine. best thing to do is check the fuel pressure with a gauge. change the main filter. When you had the tank out did you change the filter on the pump? My resivoire was gummed up to. It has valves in it that can stick. Fuel pressure gauge will be your best friend. Also check fuel pressure regulator. Any thing deals to fuel does not react well to old stale gas

The problem with injector/carb cleaners added to the tank, is that it also acts like a tank cleaner and will loosen all that stuff at one time, rather than over several months of tank fills. And i locked up two engines with Seafoam...
