Default Figure this one out....

Jarrod, Have you tried ANY of the suggestions?
Did you borrow a complete fuel tank & fuelhose assembly & try it?
Where the fuel line connects to the engine block/fuel pump there usually is
a strainer/filter there. On a small old Chrysler it is one screw in the
centre to access & clean it.
PLEASE try to eliminate one of the possiblilities at a time........ it's the
only foolproof way.
If you have an older type fuel tank you can also check the filter on the end
of the pickup pipe inside the tank.
"Timer baselinkage"? .......... Did you look to see if the spark generating
assembly advances with throttle opening?
Are you indeed serious about solving this problem or just having a game with
us?

What can anyone tell me about "Timer base linkage"? I was reading
other related posts ( seems 1000's have had this same problem! ) and
someone said to check the timer base linkage.
I can idle all day long and it gets fuel, but will die at WOT unless
I pump by hand. I almost think that the pulse isn't strong enough.
Next will be all new lines from fuel pump to carbs. That's all that's
left now to try...
