Alright. I found another vaccuum line dry rotted and thought it fixed it.  Drove it all day with ac blowin drove perfect.  Went by my work to see if any codes poped up sence my light is burnt out.  Didnt pop any thought great its done!  But when i started it back up and went to leave it died again............  Then immediatly got it back and coded it both systems lean again.  Got it to the shop and it started acting up thank goodness cuz it never does when i need it to.  Hooked the fuel pressure gauge up and bam 7 psi of fuel pressure. So i replaced the fuel pump sad thing is i had to go with another cheap oreilly cuz i cant wait on shipping right now.  So we will see how long it holds up.  Seems to be running fine no codes thrown, so hopefully this is it.  And pulling the shradder valve out it did look like the fuel was boiling a bit but it may have been from the bad pump not wantin to push it in a constant stream.  We will find out over the next cpl days.

I should have thought of fuel pressure cause on some V motors the opposite side fuel rail from the fuel input can sometimes cause a lean condition.

hope its fixed
