I would start with the fuel filter. Install a transparent in line filter so you can see what is collecting in there. If there is a lot of muck, then you know you need to flush the lines and maybe have the tank cleaned. Also, how old is the gas? If it is old, and you did not use stabilizer, it will gum up the works to a nicety.

I had the same problem on a 61 dodge 1/2 ton, the inner gas line was colapsing, I replaced all rubber gas lines with new ones and it fixed the problem. Ed.
