I even pulled the inlet hose off the carb and turned on the pump and it pumped a gallon into a gas can in no time.  Could this be anything electrical? 

What pressure is your pressure regulator set at? A weber only needs 3-5 pounds of pressure.

I dont have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.  The pump i have only runs 2.5 to 4.5 psi.

I guess we should have asked what carb you have. I'm  guessing you don't even have a regulator for it. That would explain alot. Get yourself one of those pressure testing guages and a regulator. If you call weber north america, they will tell you exactly which pressure regulator to get, or maybe someone here knows the best one as far as reliability and price. I think I had mine set just below 3 psi. per Jose at weber. Hopefully you won't have any other adjustments. Weber could help you with that too. The electric choke sometimes needs to be rotated one way or another. Again, consult with weber so you don't mess things up too bad. This is assuming all your fuel pump and electrical issues if any are corrected.

I ran a weber without a regulator, and it would run until warm, and then flood out to where I had to ride the gas at lights to keep it running. It sure sounds like you have a similar problem.

-I sure hope this helps.

NAPA sells an adjustable regulator for around 15 bucks. ran one for 3 years on my weber till I went to EFI

I put the thing in the shop and even they cant figure it out.  He said he thinks its a fuel issue also but cant figure out what is causing it.  This is the craziest thing ive ever encountered.  The problem seems so simple but nobody can figure it out.  Does a samurai have an electric sending unit in the tank?? Thats about the only other thing that hasnt been replaced. 

Narrowed it down the the carb.  Found that the needle seat had fallen out and was clogged.  That seeemed to be the fix, hopefully!  Thanks for all your help guys!
