on my 1948 gas tank outlet to the fuel pump is located approximately midway in the gas tank ( height-wise) clearly 3+ inches above the bottom of the tank, and the plug used to drain the gas tank. is that normal-truck was running just fine but now I am having fuel flow issues, I have drained the tank- it was pretty clean. looking to check get line from the tank to the fuel pump next, then vacuum on the fuel, then the line to the fuel filter. Fuel filter bulb is low- below exit so not fuel to the carb.

any help would be appreciated- pretty new at this! thanks

The pickup tube INSIDE the tank runs from the fitting on the front that you screw the line into to the bottom where it is spot welded to tab that is right against the bottom. Picture showing pickup tube on the inside of a tank under construction and before the anti slosh baffles are installed.
