Tracking down a low fuel flow issue, it looks like it starts with the flow directly from the tank. Sure, it's a small steel line, but the flow is very little. If the pump is not receiving enough, how can it push anything back to the engine. Drawing a blank

carbs, pump in front

That sock is a useless item, much better to install an external filter right out of the tank before the pump which can then be visually checked and easily replaced. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

Yes, I always install a filter as soon as the fuel exits the tank and another in the engine bay before the carbs
