Great, so you have something to work with. How about running straight
alcohol in the reservoir and doing the "feeble dribble" thing for some
time to see if it starts improving? I'd try a cycle of ten second
on/ten off over and over again to make it easy for the pump.
Also, your reverse suction idea is probably a good one, why not try for
more than "feeble"? Do you have one of those mityvac type tools handy?
If you can any flow at all in the opposite direction, again, try to
get the nozzle to "suck" in some alcohol.
