Have you got a fuel filter? If so does it need changing or fit one preferably before the pump to avoid clogging that up too.

wd40 clean of everything in the carby and shes running even more smoothly than before all the silly buggers began! replaced the fuel filter - is it worth having one on either side of the pump, i've seen it done but i wonder if it's not overkill? cheers again guys

Before the pump should be enough.
