They probably replaced the fuel pump and messed up the bucket assembly somehow.

I've only seen an Fbody bucket a few times but isn't there a little pickup tube on the pump? Is that missing or turned funny?

Here ya go . See looks like the tube is detachable. See if you still have it. When the gas gets below the pump, then it runs out but the tube will extend down further to get the fuel.

Do you think that's the problem? I've never been in mine. Does the gas come up past the filter sock or is it sitting below that?
