Update. Had an idea tonight--before of pulling the tank I removed the fuel cap, disconnected the supply line at the pump (inlet or suction side) and then applied about 40 PSI to the line back into the tank. Heard some noise when the air finally released through the tank fill pipe. Then I hot-wired the pump and opened the vent on the filter housing and observed the fuel gushing high like normal. Bled off all air, then reconnected the pump and started the engine and it's running steady and also checked fuel flow and it's gushing high (about 1 1/2") above the vent valve..
So....good news is that the pump seems to be good but bad news is that something was probably piled up on the SS strainer--maybe some algae or ???. So I likely bought some time, but will still need to remove the tank and either clean or replace the SS strainer.
