Good to have you, Ch1mp, and great avatar.
Welcome to the forum. There seems to be a lot of issues with fuel tanks doing exactly what yours did, rust. Be sure to get it as clean as possible and probably a great primer and some under coating over it to protect it for the next 20+ years. Replace the rubber lines as well, which I'm sure your going to do. Pumps can be found at RockAuto.com or your neighborhood auto parts stores.
Enjoy the forum
got the tank cleaned, installed w/new pump from high flow fuel systems, jumped it off and it runs like a champ
ok... finally got the title for the truck and went to go get it changed over. The truck starts up and idles great. I get to the main road and it has no power and tries to die when i give it gas, so i turn around and have to limp home at about 5mph anything over and it wants to cut out. I drove it today because I got off of work early and it runs until it gets warm and then does the same thing. I cut the cat off and drive it to my friends house(about 2 miles) and it runs great again. On the way home it runs great then starts the same thing but I can go about 45.....I need help

Did you replace your fuel filter?
1990 MM 4x4 3.0
1991 MM 4x4 3.0 Diamonte
1994 MM 2wd (work in progress)
Also, if it was sitting for a while the fuel injectors may need to be cleaned.
