These 40 yearold tanks are hard on fuel filters. I would replace it just to get rid of the idea.
I have also had the same problem as everybody else with the hot wire. Last time it was simply loose on the fuse panel side. inspection told me it was that way for a while because everything was a little black and melted. Now I look at it all the time even with no problems. also check the motor side of your negative battery cable. I've seen easier fixes.
