When the gas tank is less than half full, I get occasional hesitation hard enough to put my teeth in the steering wheel. When I disengage the clutch, the car immediately stalls, but will start right back up upon cranking.

I've already had the PRE-PUMP replaced. I have heard that there is a fuel line attached to the prepump that has a tendency to crack over time. Is this true? I'm convinced that this is a fuel issue since the car will not hesitate when the tank is above half-full. The car feels as if it's starved for gas.

My mechanic already checked the main pump and it showed no pressure problems. Are there fuel lines I should check? Any ideas would be very helpful.
