Hi! I had a similar problem recently with a restoration project where
the fuel was just dripping into the fuel pump from the tank. I was
able to remedy it by using compressed air from fuel line back into tank.
It took a while, but it worked for me and the flow has been fine ever
since. Hope this helps!

I get plugged tanks too. I have had really good success with a cordless
drill and a short section of speedometer cable. I roto rooter the tube
up into the tank.
