I used to wire a hidden switch under the dashboard to this fellow - the symptoms are identical to those you describe - the car runs until the carb bowl is empty then stalls. As you crank it it fill again then runs out just as quickly.
Should this have 12 volts always, when ignition is on? Is it like a valve that is closed when no volts, and open when 12 volts?

I can check this tomorrow. Does this have a fuse, I can check that too.
