First things first. Verify that you have the lines correctly installed, i.e., input and output and not reversed.

Also, the original hard tube fuel line that is welded into the tank itself, has a nasty habit of holing through right at the fuel level line you mostly keep.

In other words if you normally store the car with 1/2 a tank, that will be the area of the tube that is most likely to hole through AND THEY WILL.

Once you have a hole there, you have lost the siphoning ability below the hole.

I had this issue where the car would run out of fuel at 1/2 a tank level. It's a Pantera unique issue so it was a brain stumper for any of my friends to envision.
