"Would it be a bad idea to disconnect the fuel line at the filter and
give it a blast of compressed air to clear the line to see what
happens?"

Bob,

I have used a bicycle pump connected to the fuel line instead of compressed
air.  I have seen blowback (more like a geyser) come out of the fuel tank
doing just that with compressed air.  Not a good situation in a garage and a
little hard on the paint too.

Good luck,

Bob R.
