Engine help please!!!!!!!

That makes sense. The weird thing is that I have had it set up close to the pump for 4 years now with no trouble? I'll try removing it for now and see what happens. By the way does anybody know of a big auto store that would have the braided fuel line that we use? I ask because my vw parts store is closed on sundays and mondays In fact, now that I think about it, that could prove the fuel pump is at its last days.

Thanks
