This may sound crazy but did you check the gas cap. My sister spent almost 800 dollars trying to fix a fuel problem only to find out that the fuel cap was broken(did not seal properly).apparently the fuel system is pressurized and needs the cap to make the tank a sealed unit for the pump to work properly.I know it sounds crazy but after they replaced a 25 dollar gas cap the car ran perfect.

I was just going to say that you are getting air in there from somewhere, follow the lines also and see if there isn't a hole in the line somewhere, or a leaky gasket.

Tamarind: I was thinking cabriolet(convertible).i have never heard of a caddy. I am thinking a van/wagon could be another one also. They have some wierd local names for cars. I thought i would give it a shot.
