I had the same problem with a '78 Ford F-250...the electric fuel valve needs to be replaced...When I had it on the back tank it would also draw from the front..when back was out of gas...I would switch over to the front only to find it was down about 1/4 tank..new valve stopped the syphoning...Hope this helps...
