DAhhh yes the ol classic maros! I have had similar issue. Replace the filter if that's not it have fun changing the gas pump on the engine block. There is an push rod that comes down from the cam and helps pump it. Or simply eliminate it and go electronic. But but a high volume pressured pump! I went cheap and I got what I paid for. Might as well spend the extra buck and bet the higher pressure one. Hope this helps
