Default 89 suburban dies

have an 89 suburban fuel injected 350 700 r trans? starts fine. driving down the road it will start losing power and die. let it sit for a few seconds key on it starts right up and runs a little farther. changed the framerail fuel filter and air filter are there any other filters or what else could be the culprit??????????????????
thanx in advance

Default RE: 89 suburban dies

found that fuel tank must be near full to run. (fuel gauge isn't working). seems that when tank gets down 4 gallons or so it starts dying. the lower the tank gets the worst the dying is. guess it has a bad pickup tube or something. any other ideas?
