Roger, Cracked floats would do it! The floats get saturated with fuel and don't "float" anymore! I would suspect your fuel pump pressure but you said it ran fine with that fuel pump until now. I assume you're using a fuel filter so we can rule out nasty bits of dirt clogging the valves....if the float level is set to spec and the pump hasn't suddenly decided to put out 8 or 10psi, I'm guessing that there's a crack in one of your floats.
