If the fuel isn't getting pumped anymore it would run for a few moments till it used whatever was left in the float bowl, then quit.
Since the starter still cranks I'm not leaning toward the ground strap, though those often do get forgotten in a lift.

Well, got home from work and think i found the issue. Hose running from bottom of fuel pump to motor is too short and came off. I assume it is a vacuum line. Will get a longer hose in a while and see if that fixes it.

That would do it! It's actually a "pulse" line, back & forth between pressure and vacuum as the piston travels. Those pulses are what moves the fuel pump diaphragm.

Is it regular vacuum hose or something different?

I use 1/4" fuel line. It has some oil exposure at the crankcase end & I feel the fuel line is a bit more durable than regular vacuum line.
