    Check basics, check your electrical connections, but it also sounds like the fuel is aerated. Fuel line on the suction side might have cracked enough during the bouncing to allow it to be sucking air now.

    Swap #4 to #3 see if the problem remains. Replace the pass thru connector.
    Last time overhead was run?
