Oops, late to,the party.
FWIW, I had a similar problem with my 40. The previous owner had used a homemade fuel line with an inverted flare end going to the pump, when it should have been a compression ferrule to match the fitting’s seat. . Sucked air on the intake side of the fuel pump. Finally found it, trimmed the flare off, slid on a ferrule and it ran great until the engine blew.
