check for fuel pressure at the shrader valve when you turn the key , if not see if there is voltage and ground at the fuel pump . If you can get a half cup of gas in the throttle and it runs for a bit then I'd say thats a fuel problem

Start with the filter , if your fuel filter clogs then you won't get proper gas pressure. The cost for this is usually less than $15. If it turns out to be the pump you would want to replace the filter anyways
