Hi Josh,
your prepump has failed. The main pump sits in a plastic container about the size of a 1lb coffee can. the prepump scavanges fuel from below that container and fills the container for the main pump. when the prepump fails the main pump can only get about 12 gallons due to it's height in the tank. I get prepumps from eEuroparts.com, a site sponsor, and the precedure is in the Bentley (also available from eEuroparts.com) or on the townsend site. pretty easy to do. suggest you do it outside and when you need to add gas to make pump out and in a little less messy.
let us know how you make out.
