That's what happened to mine 3d, bloody thing! Try pressurizing the tank. If you can build pressure in the tank then you will reverse the leak and instead of air in you will have fuel out and it will be obvious. That's how I eventually found my problem.
I had picked up a rock on top of the rear drivers side spring cap where the fuel and brake lines run and it wore a hole through the fuel line and let air in! Half way across the Madigan Line!!!
It presented as a fuel blockage or fuel starvation and the car kept stalling while traveling in 1st low
Was an invisible problem and was impossible to identify.
I ended up cutting the Steal fuel line either side of the spring cap and ripping I out and ran a rubber fuel line over the top. Never had a problem again.
Was a bitch to start and had to prime every morning. If I sat with the engine idling for a while then went to take off it would stall and I'd have to get out and prime it! You should have seen Me trying to do Big Red! Had to like at th bottom before each run!!
Hope this helps you mate. Drive me nuts!
FYI! There in no non return Valve on the back of the pump and if there is an air lam I your line the. It will allow the fuel line to flow backwards while the pump is not sucking causing your trouble





....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!
