Dude what we do [but this is diesel] disconnect at fuel pump and before tank --blow fuel pipe out with airline.IF tank has drain plug then drain into small tin --that way you can see if there is dirt in the tank [vehicle must stand for a while to let all the dirt settle at the bottom]Use thin film of grease on fuel filter rubber [if it's tin filter -throw away] glass filters can chip and crack and cause air leak/air lock.I would as a last resort lend a fuel pump and just check if it pumps --that way you'll know if your original pump is buggered.Our way of working ---never refuel when fuel truck is filling tanks at BP or shell cos that means the fuel is low at the petrol station and you don't know when last they have done a sludge test and believe me they also have dirt in the fuel [all at the bottom] just think about it when fuel pump kicks off and they say its empty use next pump
