If you have ruled out vapor lock and adding the gallon of gas did the trick then the line getting a pinhole at the very top is a known problem. It usually is where the line inside the tank attaches to the outside opening and bends before it starts the drop down to the tank bottom. At roughly half full or needing 11 gallons point is right about the spot where the very top is uncovered. If you made it to about 1/4 tank the top of the U is the other place.

Here is a photo of the tank inside that Ross posted some time back. I added arrows pointing to the two areas pinholes have been known to happen.
