There is a screen in the tank, and a clog in the tank can cause this
symptom.  You can blow some air up into the fuel line going into the tank
as a temporary remedy, and even if this doesn't work, you may notice that
the fuel coming out of the line has rust/dirt particles in it.  I'm not a
mechanic, but this is my best guess.
