When was the fuel filter last changed ? also remove the electric connections marked with RED dots in the photo, spray with some contact cleaner only, push on & off a few times, see if it makes any difference, next remove the fuel line marked with the YELLOW dots put it into a plastic bottle get someone to turn the ignition to II without starting the car, and see if the fuel flows without any spluttering, if it does then you have good pressure, if not the suspect the pump, only replace with a good one pierburg new or a good known used one.

The filter pump on top of the fuel filter very rarely go wrong but again try a known good one, i always keep a few of these spare for our meets just in case.
