Engine starts briefly, stalls, then won't fire at all. Possible fuel problem? Where is the fuel filter located? What is acceptable pressure range?

Yes. This sounds like a fuel issue. We can try starting fluid in the intake when this is acting up and see if it starts. If it does then this would be a fuel issue.

We can also test the fuel pressure using this guide to help know for sure:

I attached the info of the fuel filter for your review. Let us know what you find. Thanks
