My 1980 F250 has a electric fuel pump on it that some one put on before I got it. It seems to be going out.Motor runs for about 5min and no gas pressure at line.Any one know how electric pumps go out. Should I put the stock back on or run a electric pump? Thanks Gary

It's your choice. Just remember they may have had a good reason to use the electric pump, so trying to go back stock may open a can of worms, you never know. Like possibly the eccentric on the camshaft is missing to run the factory pump(if it's a v8).
