Here is what I would check. Check the cables from the battery to the starter, they must be heavy 6 volt cables. It sounds like you are not getting enough current to the starter. If they have been repaired with the ends that wire sides under a metal clamp with two 7/16 bolts, they corriode. I would replace them with new 6 volt cables. The starter switch could not be making a good connection, not allowing enough power to the starter. Next check the starter, it should be checked for worn brushes, weak springs on the brushes or shorted armature. If you haven't repaired starters it would be best to take it to a repair shop.
It sounds like you have tried things in the fuel system. You may want to try draining the fuel through the fuel system.

I have a model t ford that would run good until it got to less then a half tank of gas. When going up a hill or when it needed more power it would spit and spouder. The gas tank is gravity feed located under the seat (kind of like riding on a bomb)the housing of the sediment bowl was full on dirt.

It didn't have a pressure release or electric start to facilitate easy starting but according to the instructions, simply pulling on the trigger while cranking was sufficient.
