I have a 1980 c3500 with dual tanks I just put in new fuel sending units and hoses. Now with the motor running fuel from the right tank it goes to the left tank. The hoses are hook up probably. What would cause this problem. How do I fix it?

The problem was pinched fuel line at the sending unit. When I put in new units I didn’t remove the bed. Well I left the fuel lines too long.
