How well did you check the fuel pickup?

This has all the earmarks of a leak in the pickup tube. When the fuel level gets below that point, you would start sucking air. Adding fuel would cure the prolem. I believe Bold Rascal had a similar problem a year or so ago.

With your tank so high, the pump should have no problem getting the fuel moving.
