Our problem here is we don't have any references on your model-however it seems you're in the right track-if you have a fuel pressure tester you can determine it -if its a clogged fuel filter or defective fuel pump-with No or Low fuel pressure

I know this is an old post, but in case someone else is reading this...

Have a look at the attached image... look for the filter under
the vehicle, sitting in a plastic housing.
