This was the pump in my car. Obviously an after market part. Not easy to find locally in Germany though. Things are different here.

It has 7 psi and I guess it's the same like the one in the other thread mentioned above.

It's not working, even directly connected to an external battery.

I'll exchange that and the problem is probably solved than....

I think you found the problem. Where was this pump located on the truck.

It was near the original position. The hard line coming from the back of the truck ends 3 inches below that location. There is a 3 inch soft line and then the original hard line again.

Just for people reading this with a similar problem:
Problem is solved- engine runs :)

Problem has nothing to do with the filter, it was the, aftermarket, fuel pump that was defect.

Installed a new 7PSI pump and let the air out of the lines at the injectors. So unscrewed all (first try was only with line 7/8 open, without success) eight fuel lines to the injectors, cranked till at all lines fuel was getting out. It almost started with open lines :) .
Tightened all again, that's it.
