Apologies is this is a horribly basic and obvious comment, but I don't think there should be bubbles in the fuel pump. I got that on mine when the seal around the glass dome started leaking, so the pump was partly sucking from the surrounding atmosphere, not the fuel line. Holes in the diaphragm would give the same effect.
