Stephen,

Blow some air back through the fuel line from the filter. Past experience
with a friends 3/4 that had similar symptoms proved to be rust in the fuel
tank.

Replacement AC civie fuel pump should be available through most any auto
parts store. I bought one about 5 yrs ago for about 15 dollars. A store in
a farming community may have one on the shelf. Would be a good idea to have
a spare fuel pump anyhow. I have had a diaphragm go bad with some of the
reformulated gas.
