Is the fuel tank less than 1/4 full? If so try more fuel.
First found this out on a Car Limits day at North Weald, I panic'd thought I had broken something, the instructor just looked at the gauge and sent me to re-fuel, problem solved.

As YVM says, have you fitted a Walbro or similar fuel pump?

also, get a spray tin of brake cleaner to clean your boost solenoid
