There is a possibility that the fuel filter may be clogged. From the symptoms you describe, it sounds like a fuel delivery issue. If you can do the fuel delivery test, that may give you some indication of where the problem may be.
I had a Volvo 1800ES that constantly clogged up the fuel filter with water. Once that happens, it would barely pass any gas to the engine.
