"Started the season with occasional backfiring. changed plugs, wires, cap and rotor, fuel filter. Backfiring has gotten worse. There has been a couple times that there was not enough fuel in the fuel filter to get engine started. This is leading me to think there is an air leak in the fuel line, or the fuel pump is going bad, or blockage somewhere. Any thoughts ??"

"An air leak in the fuel line would allow air in, but also fuel out.

I would run a compression test and a leak-down test, to make sure you don't have a faulty valve."
