check your needle and seat in your carb. I think you have a piece of crap in there. a fuel pump will either pump, or not pump. my mustang did that same thing to me. 2 mechanical fuel pumps, 2 electric pumps, clean tank, new pick up, new steel and rubber lines. lotsa $$$$$$, to find out it had a piece of crap in the needle seat that wouldn't allow the gas in the carb,,,, only happened when it was warmed up. good thing Janet was my tow truck, could have been even more $$$$$$ involved
