Dave, I turned the pump in 1/4 turn to start with. The engine ran fine and transitioned well on the ground. Took off and was in the air about 1 minute when it she died. Could not get the engine to restart, tried changing the plug, but to no avail it would not run. Came home and noticed fuel pouring out of the pipe when carry the plane into my shop. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. When changing the plug, there was not an excess amount of fuel running out of the head like you find with a flooded engine. The engine turned over normal.
