Problems: Electical or Fuel?

Ok last ditch option after you have tried all the stuuf before mentioned because its all alot easier, Pull the gas tank and remove the pump. I believe there is a little "sock" of filter bag type thing on the bottom. If it is cloged up theres your problem. All the junk that collects in the tank settles in the tank until you hammer down on it and create negative pressure. The stuff naturally tries to find a way out and the only way is through the pump. If thats the problem. Clean the screen and flush the tank. Put it all back together and it should be fine for another hundred thousand.
