My 1991 Jeep Cherokee isn’t getting fuel. After sitting for a few months, it started up fine and drive 30 miles before stalling out. I’m getting a spark for sure, the fuel relay is working, I can hear the fuel pump operating when I turn the key, when I did a pressure test under the hood, I got zero pressure. Is it possible the fuel filter could be that clogged up? I’m running out of ideas.

Very possible and an easy fix if it is.
