Possibly old gas in the line.
possibly a thorough tune-up would help.
more than likely it is a fuel problem, plugged areas.
gasoline has a tendency to completely evaporate overtime leaving a gooey / hard residue that plugs the fuel system.
a fuel additive like techron might help clean the fuel system.
