It does sound like the fuel pump. It could also be the fuel pump sock filter.
At the bottom of the pump is a white (well, when they are new) filter sock. It is about 8cm x 2cm and attaches to the bottom of the fuel pump. If that falls off, it can make picking up fuel harder, or, if it clogs.
Also, the main fuel filter, which is on the right front frame rail (by the exhaust!).
Since you are far out in the middle of no where, I would order a new fuel pump, new sock and new fuel filter.
The new filter is easy, if the pump decided to spew garbage up the fuel line, it would be clogged... and depending on when the car last was run, the fuel line might be clogged.
That would be easy to fix with an air compressor! Just remove the fuel delivery from the tank and disconnect it at the fuel filter and blow! If there is a clog, that might free it.
Also, when you replace the pump, get a good one. I have been researching them lately, because the replacement ones are just not that good. I will have to dig up the names I was looking at. I will get that info later today.
