It sounds like the pump is losing its prime when it sits. By design Rotary Electric pumps push fuel better than pull it. Are you pulling fuel from the top of the tank or the bottom If you can, mount the pump so the inlet is even with the bottom of the tank. I think electric pumps do not have enough benefits to outweigh the negatives. Check the pressure you are running, be sure the carb is capable by design of accepting what you are asking it to.
