Before you buy the new gas tank or fuel pump .... buy one of those outboard motor fuel tanks, put it under the fuel pump and plumb it directly in. If it runs nice that way ... well you know you have a fuel tank/line/rust problem. Get the smallest one you can ... about 3 gallons I think ... around $50. Will always come in hand in the future for similar adventures with fuel systems, or engines on stands. Will also allow you to put off the expense and time to install a new tank if you want to diagnose other things first.
