Hi Tom, I'm just catching up with this thread so late to the game. We also had some leakage along the forward inward edge of the tank so removed it and had it rewelded like James did. As others have

My first thought is also fuel supply. One time we started our engine with the fuel shut off valve closed...she ran perfect then just quit. I can see the engine pulling a vacuum on the fuel line
