Rb20 Start up

Alright, again for some reason there are no threads about start up problems for the rb20 or I'm just not trying hard enough.

If there is a thread - please link me to that thread. That would be very appreciated.

So here is the story :

I replaced my spark plugs, FPR, and recently installed a boost gauge.
All connections cleared, she fired up real nice. *Rev* *rev* *rev*.

Hmm. Okay everything is good. Gauge accurate. No leaks. Running fine.

*Drives down a few meters*. LA LA LA LA LA - *Engine dies*. SH*T.

So I was thinking : Hm. Maybe I ran outta gas.

*craannnnnnnnnk* ... *sputter*. Okay maybe I did run out of gas

*go to gas station, buys gas, siphons into tank*

Okay lets try again.
*Craaaannnnnnnnnnk* *vrrrmmm-----*sputter*... dies*.

!

*Crannnnnnnnnnnnnnnk* *vrrmmm---*sputter* (sh*t ; *taps throttle*) vrmm.. vr.. *sputter*... dies*.

Alright so this is the problem for those who are confused as hell :

-Recently installed a boost gauge, FPR, and spark plugs. Engine ran fine for 30 minutes or so, and then I drove down a few meters and the engine died.
Now it won't start up again.

Checked under to see if it were a busted fuel hose, but there is no leak of fuel.

Checked connections / hoses / pipes - all good.

Put in two gallons of gas. Nothing.

Adjusted FPR multiple times - nothing.

Fuel pump is NEW from Walbro... I hear it go *whrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr* but then the engine always sputters out.... like a rattling noise kind of.

Cranks, sometimes fires up, but doesn't idle and always dies out.

What could it be? Any help would be nice, thanks.
