99 24 valve with Fass 150 1/2" draw straw, 110 hp injectors, Edge Juice w/ attitude and II HRVP. Truck carries 22 - 21 psi running down the road and at idle. The problem is when I stop the fuel pressure drops to 5 - 6 psi and will die on occasion. This ONLY happens when I stop at a stop sign etc. There are no kinks in the fuel lines, the spring and pressure ball in the Fass have been checked and replaced. I know this sounds like a pick up issue but can anyone expalin why and where ??? The truck has 3/8 of a tank of fuel when it did this today ! I know the draw straw is off the floor of the tank, any HELP !!
 
It is definitely the draw straw. When you are stopping below 3/8 of a tank all of the fuel is rushing to the front of the tank. Mine used to do it just below half tank. I installed the new unit from Airdog, and it still does it when its much below 1/4. Now I just fill up when it gets that low. Its annoying but youll get used to it.
