Engine surges while under load

I bled my fuel system from the top of the filter housing the other day but I can see small air bubbles in my fuel line leading to my injectors, is this normal? Could it be causing the problem? Also Is there a 3rd fuel filter other than the 2 on the drivers side rear of the engine?

Howdy all, I took the LA deuce out today ( Louise ) it gave Woody and me some problems coming back from Polk a couple months ago. After a new fuel pump we thought it was running better. Not the case I had the fuel filters out think they may be the culprit. I drove it about 60 miles round trip. It runs good at idle but when you are on the road say running ( by speedo ) 45mph just cruising the engine bogs down or surges like its not getting enough fuel. If I start blipping the throttle it comes back to life and goes on along till it starts over again. After a long 60 miles I got it back to the house and am wonder what might be causing this. Also Woody was running over junk cars with this same truck a few months ago and had to replace the steering column and box. It is my understanding that you cant pull the steering box with out removing the ip pump because of clearance issues. If this is true could the pump just be a lil out of time, if so how to re time this thing. Could it be in the injector head, there does seem to be a miss at full throttle and the truck wont go over 50mph but use to before all these issues. Anybody have any ideas, pics on how to fix. It seems like the new year through a lot on my plate. Business to run, contracts to find, trucks to fix, property to clear,divorce court, it seems it never ends!:grd:
Alredneck, your problem seems to be the closest to the one I am having. Did you ever fix it???
