You can drill open the bottom of the basket to help it draw in more fuel. Mustang guys have been doing it for years! Drill out the main hole and filter and then do a few extra holes. You will noticed a dramatic increase in fuel flow into the bucket!

Might have to do that because something is up and it makes sense that it would get worse as the tank level drops. I also think that when im at a 1/4 I probably have 3/8" on the left side and 1/8" on the right side which works against me.

Also going to change the fuel filter like was suggested, it cant hurt.
