86 toy help, help asap

Fuel pressure? Seriously, this sounds a lot like a problem I had with a clogged pickup screen on the fuel pump in the tank (causing very low fuel pressure). Would start and run for a bit and then just die. Kept getting worse and worse.

Obviously you said you already took the pump out and looked, but you don't really know what kind of pressure it's putting out, you really need to get a fuel pressure gauge and test it.
 
I had a similar situation happen before that took a bit of hunting down to figure out. It turns out that there was a half-burst hose in the fuel tank that ran between the fuel pump and the fuel line. It allowed enough pressure to idle, but nothing more.

Dropped the tank, pulled the pump and found the slit down the center of the hose. Replaced with with the heaviest duty high pressure link I could find and problem solved.

Stupid engineering.
 
i replaced the fule presure reg. and still dose it, but i know i need to check the psi and i need to get a fule psi gauge. so i guess i need to find one to barrow. and if i cant fix it i will sell it or part it out, Thanks for the help guys.
