then determin if its a fuel,electric of vac leak problem.
put a visible filter between the pump and carb, that way you know that fuel getting to the carb,
pull off your carb, fill the bowl, and see if your carb is squirting when you work the throttle body/
check the float and needle, make sure it drop freely and not hanging up, preventing gas from flowing into the carb.
if carb seems fine and squirts when worked. investigate your points,timing, and check for vac leaks
