Default gas problem

I have a 2001 gas club car. it will run for about two minutes and run out of gas. i have replaced the fuel pump and fuel lines. after it sits for a little bit, it will start up and run for about two minutes. what is wrong with it....

Check the line from the engine block to the fuel pump, it should be up hill all the way with no droops or low places leaving the block. Also check the vent in the gas cap and make sure it's open. Some one else will be along with more ideas.

Also check the vent line. There is a line from the top of tank that runs under to nothing. If this gets plugged, it puts a vacuum on the tank and stops or slows the flow of gas. Easy to check. It has like a little filter in the end of it. It gets packed with dirt. You can also loosen the gas cap and see if it runs. Just throwing out another possibility.

The fuel filters are empty, I can hold the choke in and get it to run a little.

Partial blocked, or collapsed vent line
