Help ASAP

Someone mentioned checking the fuel filter. Our car doesn't have an inline filter, so the only 'filter' is the one attached to the fuel pump in the tank. IMHO, if you are dropping the tank to look, might as well put a new pump and strainer in there. It seems silly to expend the time and effort to drop a gas tank just to inspect the strainer and not replace old parts.

My advice, can of seafoam in the tank, get some good gas (other than on post) and

Like Ghost said. There is no inline filter. The filter is on the bottom of the pump. It's one of those nylon filter bag screens. That's the best way I can describe it. You don't have to drop the tank to get to it. Just move the passenger seat all the way forward, or remove it. Pop the cover off the flat shelf where the manual hides at with a flat screwdriver. Remove the insulation. Under that is the fuel pump.
