for some reason I am getting air in my fuel line. I can see it coming in the fuel pump glass. tried putting on a new fuel line back to the tank.. still sucking air. where is it coming from?

I assumed that maybe the dip tube is cracked or holes in it. so I filled the tank with gas. still sucking air!!

I will drive a couple of miles and the car would act like its running out of gas. I would pull over look at the fuel pump and there would be half a bowl of fuel in there. but the separator near the carb has plenty of gas in it.

perhaps there is a hole in the diaphram? I'm gonna try an electric fuel pump.
