Mine did exactly the same thing when I first got it. IIRC mine had a little
copper mesh screen in the tank that was full of debris. For good measure I
removed the tank and flushed it out. No further problems after that.

My car has been driving me nuttier recently.  It would be bopping along just
fine running pretty good for an old gal.  Then, without warning, try its
damned ness to die.  Bleeping the throttle with AAA thoughts in my head it
would come back to life.  So, this afternoon I started the shotgun approach.
Replaced the fuel pump, replaced the fuel filter and when I took the vice
grips off the line from the tank no fuel went into the filter.  Loosened
clamps to filter and still no gas leaving the tank.  I am assuming there is
a filter in the tank that filters gas before it exits tank.  Yes?  No?
