Answer
Hi Curt:

well you need to see what the engine is missing. Either spark or fuel? that engine need over 40 psi of pressure to run properly it may have pressure but too low. the fuel filter may bave been your culprit it may have been so plugged that the pump over worked it's self trying to push fuel through the plugged filter. if it has enough pressure then check for spark on all 6 cylinders. I'm sure it missing one or the other. Good luck :)
