Incorrect fuel pressure. It should be no more than 3.2 pounds and no less than 2.8 pounds.

They normally make noise when they priming or starved of fuel, definately get a regulator fitted after the pump (non efi) and check the location of the mounted pump is suitable for correct operation.

I am using a similar electric pump with dual carbies and a fuel regulator is required and must be set to around 3psi of pressure.
It does seem strange that it runs for quite a while and then floods though, many people on this site know much more than me about carbs though, good luck. You can view topic.
