Default Fuel issues

Hey guys. I am looking for a little help troubleshooting my cart (2012 ezgo gas with Kawasaki engine).

Problem Description:
Depress the accelerator and the cart goes as normal. After 20 seconds or so, cart starts to sputter (no fuel) and eventually stalls. The engine will not start. Let the cart sit (overnight in some cases) and the cart will restart and run again for a short period.

Observation:
The fuel filter bulb appears to be 1/4 full.

This issue began all of a sudden. I suspect I am having fuel pump problems but I am unfamiliar with how the pump works. I assume it is working off of some type of diaphragm.

How do I test the fuel pump? Any other thoughts or suggestions before I dive in?

I'm sure I can muddle through and find/repair the problem, but any short cuts would certainly save time.

Many thanks.
