any ideas?

ok guys i have a 91 f-150 ext cab and the fuel pump in the front tank runs constantly but it is now sounding like it is starving for gas..it wont start without a spray of starting fluid in the throttle body and it will idle but as soon as i hit the gas it stutters...if i try to restart the truck it wont unless i hit it again with the starting fluid. i have dropped the tank and it seemed to be pumping fuel thru the filter and it has pressure at what looks like a valve stem on the fuel rail and i have replaced the what i believe is the fuel pressure regulator any ideas on this would be grateful im starting to lose faith in ford..thanx for any help tim

You need to check the actual fuel pressure with a gauge. It sounds like it is weak or is somehow pumping gas into the rear tank.
