Yer to me it sound like the moment you try to force more fuel through it struggles, so I would start by looking at your fuel. Start at your tank to filter, the lines for kinks all the way through to your injectors. From front to back. Then you can rule out fueling. Let me know how you get on.
One thing I learned was Haynes manuals are a bible and can help alot more than you think. If you havn't already got one I would say invest in one
