Re: 90 f150 , no fuel delivery

There are actually 3 fuel pumps on the truck. The low pressure one is in the
tank. The one on the frame rail (it's pretty obvious) steps the pressure
up.

The low pressure pumps provide enough pressure to actuate the valve that
switches between tanks. It's made so that it seals in the fuel return line
to the tank that the fuel came out of. It should be obvious why that's
needed. Any leaking from one tank to another is normally not a concern, but
on your truck it might be.
