These trucks had a problem when they first came out with the baffle in the bottom of the tank coming loose. Back then they would come loose and move around and knock the electric fuel pump loose causing the truck to die and be towed in. I fixed hundreds of them back then at the dealer I worked at. I dont know your setup but maybe yours is loose and causing a problem with your pickup in the tank. I still see one every couple of years. If yours is loose the choices are new tank or find someone with very small arms to go in a put new sheet metal nuts on to hold it back in place.
