I took the truck out for it's first spring run a few weeks ago and ended up getting stranded a few miles from the house. It turns out the original gas tank had a ton of rust and varnish which plugged off the fuel filter after a few miles. I decided to eliminate the problem once and for all and did so by installing a new tank and all new lines. I took the truck out yesterday for an hour drive and all went well, my problems had been dirty fuel.
Here are some pictures of replacing the old tank:
