Yup. The strainer is on the end of the pickup tube in the tank. Just like the oil pump strainer. The filter is under your passenger'* feet. Just inside the frame rail under the car.
The 92 strainer has a problem, and a plugged strainer can make it more obvious over time. The possibility of the pickup tube developing a leak over time can also make the same original problem seem more apparent. Watch it carefully, and if it gets worse, consider replacing the pump/strainer assembly. It'* really not that hard to drop the tank and do this.

It may also be worse if your strainer assembly has developed pinhole leaks in the neck area (still inside the tank). Not all the fuel goes out to the filter/fuel rail then. You may be suffering from one of these problems, or more likely, a combination of the two.
