This is hard to solve really because there is a ton of confusion in the story. Sounds like fuel issues perhaps dirty filter. Gas pump could be going out they do not last forever. I like Delphi to Motorcraft. Might have get new tank as well because it could be littering small debris into pump or filter. Get fuel pressure to motor checked out after replace filter. It's the cheapest thing to do first when troubleshooting gas issues. Secondly I doubt there is a fuse running the pump. It could be a black box on fuse panel. Fuse cover should tell you.good luck

the 2007 Bantam has the Euro 2 Bosch PCM, where as the earlier Bantams use the Euro 1 Bosch PCMs. Check if they both use separate Cluch and Brake switches. Check the part numbers are correct for both systems for the clutch and brake. Check also the speedo drive sensors on the Transaxel. The part numbers may be different.
