Fuel System Trouble Shooting

Hey guys,
I just rerouted my fuel system. The truck starts up fine but then chugs and stalls out unless I push the gas pedal. Once I have risen the rpms up and drop it back down, it idles fine. So, I have concluded that my system must have an air leak somewhere. What do you guys think?

Thanks.

Douglas

I found the issue after pounding my head against the wall for a while. It was a leaky valve I put in for an auxiliary fuel tank. The valve was sucking air and draining the fuel back. Thanks
