It's a good chance that it's a bad fuel pump and the symptoms you describe are typical. If it makes enough noise that you can clearly hear it in the cabin, it's probably shot. Even though it runs, it may not be providing enough pressure.
The cheap way of proceeding is to get a replacement at a junkyard and see if it fixes the problem. I get used pumps for about $10 at a local U-pull-it place. What you might pay at a junkyard could be more. New pumps are pretty pricy.
Also, consider springing the $45 for a Bentley manual. For my money they're much better than Haynes for most things.
