Welcome to the forum. Use a gage and check fuel pressure. Some of the national brand autostores might loan you a fuel pressure gage? You can call and ask. If you have the spider fuel system, sometimes the fuel poppets get clogged? Without knowing if you have proper fuel pressure, it's hard to know which way to go?
