Well your probably going to be told to do a fuel leakdown test. But if it was me and it had been awhile since I changed the fuel filter, I'd probably do that first. Strikes me that something is clogged and since fuel filters get clogged, eh, why not change it? Something that should be changed after certain period of time\miles anyway.
