what do you think i should do? should i unhook the line from the fuel
pump to the carb and blow air through it? how should i unstick the
needle value? (the carb is a almost new Holley)...

thanks for the post,

Possibly the carb is plugged up from old gas plugging off the needle
valve?

or theres something restricting the fuel line from the carb tot he tank

hi,
the engine will turn over and if i spray carb cleaner in it will run
for a few seconds, so i replaced fuel pump (OEM $200 from local dealer
-- grrrrrr), and the fuel filter. i tried starting again about 6 - 8
times spraying carb cleaner in and it will run but dies-- still no
fuel coming into carb. i pulled off fuel filter and noticed it is
about half full of fuel. do i need to keep trying to just keep trying
to start it? maybe the system is not full of fuel yet? it just seem
like it should have charged by now...

am i missing something?

any help appreciated...
