Default fuel problems, 89 hf, b18a1, 255lph

yeah so check it. got my ---- all together and went for the first test drive with boost and my car stalled and wont start. the last thing i did was install my dsm 450s and xenocron 255lph pump, chipped my pr4 myself with the basemap and socket i got from xeno. i started the car and let it idle for about 10 minutes, revved it, ran fine didnt break up at all. today i check everything over and go for the first test drive boosted. start the car let it idle a few minutes, no problems.

drive it down the road and it stalls. i can hear the fuel pump turn on and its very very loud so i know it not sucking fuel, plus it doesnt spray anything out when i disconnect the line from the fuel fitler.

does it sound like i fucked something up in the tank? sock problems? i really dont feel like dropping this tank again so any insight will help.

sounds like the sock fell off the pump.. mine runs good with a 1\4 tank but does the same thing yours does with less than that..

well i dropped the tank and everything was good, tried more gas and wallah it works.

now i have a problem of it stalling when i slow down. i was told it was because i have a lightweight flywheel and 4 puck clutch. something with the ecu not being able to keep up with the car idling down fast... anyone heard of this? fuel isnt a problem anymore, got new plugs in it.

btw it breaks loose in 3rd
