have a 99 4700 dt466e
2 issues

twin tanks will drain the drivers side tank dry till runs out off fuel
pass tank over full.
refill driver tank and issue goes away

have checked the hoses brass t's pulled tanks no trash replaced fuel filter all the simple stuff only does this once in a while on long routes

issue 2

on long routes 4-5 hours will start losing power white smoke
not skipping just no power lot of white smoke.
found if you pull over and wait keep idle at 1-1.5 k
motor issue will clear up and thens runs perfect

will get cam sensor error
my tech and dealer has changed sensor many times
last time went to ford for to try there part #
have also replaced all injectors

any ideas?
on which way to go?

Check the fuel tank vent tubes. Make sure they are not restricted.
