I can give you my hill story. M1009, drove it 5 hours after I bought it and it ran fine. At home I parked it back up on a steep hill, plenty of fresh fuel, and she died. All I got was white smoke.

Fast forward, I seemed to have sucked up crapps in the tank and broke loose a pile of brown algae. It came out of the fuel lines in sheets of about 1 square inch each.

The cure for me was a new tank, sender, lines, electric pump, and spin on filter. I took a phot of the fuel and posted it here somewhere, it was gross. Anyway, hope your problem is a little simpler. :driver:
