Agreed.

You are most likely pulling in air. Check ALL connections on the VO side carefully. Then check them again. Remember, not too tight!

Also check so see how well the VO fuel filter is tight on the housing. You don't have an inline filter on the VO side do you?

The clear hose will help, but you could also put in an inline filter without the filter element to achieve nearly the same thing.
