So the new pump has the three fittings? Did you ever find out if there's a restriction in the line? A restriction in the suction line will make the pump work harder to pull the fuel, lowering it's boiling point.

(The same effect is realized although reversed with a sealed cooling system. The boiling point of the water is increased due to increasing pressure.)
