I know you stated in the original post that you changed the filters, but if you still have crud in the tank, they will clog again in short order.

I agree that if your Tank is contaminated Filters Can plug up fast. When trouble shooting it is easier just to change them and elimnate them as a source of the problem.
Fuel Tank Screen plugged? Swap the positions of the Fuel Inet and Fuel Oulet Hoses; but have at lease a 1/2 Tank of Fuel.
Even though you are seeing Fuel coming out you might not be getting enough Fuel volume.
It could be that your Fuel Supply/Lift Pump is gummed up inside and keeping the Valves from sealing or your Pressure Relief/Over Flow valve (see cervans very long thread) is having an issue and not allowing the Fuel supply pressure to be high enough.
