[Healeys] Running Problem

My car has intermittently been acting up.  

 

Driving along the freeway, it has repeatedly started to hesitate and
backfire.

 

If I slowed down or pulled over it would run fine until today, where it
refuses to do anything but idle, any attempt to give it gas results in a
backfire.

 

All indications are the fuel pump.  

 

But, it certainly appears to be pumping plenty of fuel when bench tested,
the grose jets are not stuck, floats are correctly set.  Carb. Dampers move
freely, dashpot oil is at correct level,  Timing is correct.
