Just to prove the fuel supply fault, can you gravity feed from a bottle or similar to see if the misfire is cured?
I have run engines merely by spraying carb cleaner into the carb intake direct. I have to say that I did away with a mech pump on my Dolly Sprint and had an electric one and a filter king to get just the right pressure (1.5 psi SU carbs or 3.5 psi for Weber DCOE).

Have you checked the filter on the pick up in the tank ? I had the same problem with my diesel 2+2, now have an inline filter before the fuel pump.

Nothing fancy. Fuel filter, non expensive clear type, before the pump. The only non petrol thing is the fuel tank been a diesel one. This has the take off low on the tank. The problem. I have had problems with either misfiring or cutting out & not starting. The main problem I can see is that my fuel filter is more full of air than fuel. Also I have a lot of bubbles coming into the filter on the suction side. I have a new pump & filter. Also I did have a different carb on it which gave the same problem. Any ideas as to why I could be getting this air / bubbles in the fuel filter? Hope the above makes sense.
