When you initiate the electric pump (how wired, IGN SW or toggle switch?), it will operate until the fuel bowl(s) are filled (needle and seat) and then slow down somewhat or cut-off entirely.

I have good voltage everywhere. The odd thing is that the electric pump did NOT shut off but went from a rapid click to a very slow click. The pump is new, installed last winter. And yes has flow thru capacity. The gauge at the carb reads 4.2 lbs of fuel pressure. I see no leaks anywhere or smell any fuel. I use only ethanol free fuel. Any suggestions???

Only toggle the electric pump (without engine cranking) until it stops or slows drastically. Release toggle switch and then crank. It is a PRIMER PUMP only.
Did you perform the voltage drop test as in the TECH ARTICLE I posted?
Is the engine in a good state of tune?
