Put on a Airtex 8131 and builds about 9-11 psi when you flip the accessory switch then when started loses all pressure and truck will run for 3-5 min and die. What could be the problem? Thanks

I’m plumbing through the original pump and put a hose that was rated for to be submerged in fuel. And all the air is bled out of system. Once it dies again, I bleed it and it takes awhile for the gauge to come up on the lift pump then once it does I tighten the bleed valve on the sec filter and she fires up again. Idles for 3-5 min and dies
