Fuel Delivery Problem

This ^^, and I would add, it's quite possible you just got a junk pump from the git go.

OP, why did you change the pump in the first place? Same problem? If so, I would look the the eccentric maybe.

Swapped out the pump because I knew I had gas and the lines were clear, but got nothing to the carb (except at RPM above idle AFTER putting some gas down the carb to get it started). couldn't find any info on the pushrod length and figured it was a long shot that it went bad, so went with the pump. The pushrod did slide out of the block on it's own when I removed the pump, but I don't recall taking it all the way out and inspecting it.
