Its all that biodiesel crap your putting through there, LOL j/k.
Not sure if you've looked at the procedures for doing it or not, not sure if yours is the same is mine, but its a lot easier to take the bed off to get to the fuel pump, rather then dropping the tank, if you have the choice.

lol, I wish it were just the biodiesel! but the truck has a little over 130k miles on it so it's about time for things to start going soulth. like the glow plugs that I replaced the week before last. As for replacement the pump is on the chasi rail , easy to change, but the pump just must be gold plated or something!
