Default 2001 Gmc sierra 3500/ int low fuel press.

This one has got me puzzled,6.0 litre efi ,had to be towed home,would start but not enough power to move,checked fuel press.20-23 psi with or without regulator vaccum line on,dual tanks,pumps were replaced at dealer 2 years ago,replaced filter,no improvement.
