Where do you live? Has it been warm and the tank full?

Check the fuel filter. It may be clogged.

No check engine light? A vapor leak that big should set a light. If it isn't vapor, it's probably fuel. You see any puddles or drips? Do you usually "stuff it full" or fill it way past the first click off?
