fuel pump?

Ok the car seams to miss slightly, and now when i hit the gas she will stutter and and chug like she just ran out of gas , and when I shut her off I can hear bubbles in the fuel tank. Any ideas? I think the pump is dying but what could be causing the bubbles other than a hole on the line somewhere?

Yeah, I'd check the pressure first. It's going to suck the big one if you do have to change a pump because you have to drop the rearend to get the gas tank out. If it weren't for the bubbles I'd say a new filter should do the job but the bubbles sure are strange.
