I had a parallel problem with my car shortly after I bought it. I would appear to run out of petrol after a few miles, especially if I had been climbing in third or second. I had the tank professionally cleaned, overhauled the carb and fitted a new fuel pump. All to no avail. In desperation, and because it was the only part I hadn't either overhauled or replaced, I fitted a new fuel line front to back even though I could blow through it quite happily. Problem solved!
The only thing that that i could think was that, over the years, the lumen of the fuel line had become restricted either by corrosion or crud.
