You are describing a fuel delivery problem... When is the last time you changed the fuel filter? Did you do one when you did the pump? Did this problem show up before or after the fp was replaced? I would do the fuel filter again anyways just in case you picked up some water in the tank... a fuel filter will not pass water and will "clog".
