Replace all rubber lines. And check your fuel filter gasket. the fuel lines crack and it alows the pump to suck air.

Replace the rubber hoses, rebuild the tank selector valve (o-rings), replace the filter seal and make sure the top bolt is sealed(square washer). Also, the pickup tube in the tank is prone to rusting near the top of the tank. If all that don't help, your IP may need to be resealed.
