Agree with the others and agree with your efforts. Need to know if there is a filter between pump and carb. Need to know if you see no fuel coming out of pump output line when placed into a jar, while cranking for 15-25 sec, distributor center wire disconnected. If there is no fuel getting to carb, there is nothing to be gained by pouring gas down carb yet. You must do a proper pump flow test with no filters involved first.
I guess if you are curious if it will start/fire knowing no fuel is getting to carb, it's up to you. At least you will be happy if it starts/fires.
If no fuel at pump outlet (without filters)= bad pump, pump arm not aligned, air leak in hoses/lines, tank plugged, tank not vented. Not sure if all above will cause, just mentioning everything I can think of.
Should have a pretty strong pulsing squirt and start to fill jar pretty quick if battery and starter are up to snuff.
CAUTION: Fuel at the pump inlet can be deceiving. There will be a trickle or a dickle there but that does not mean the pump is getting enough fuel. Besides what George said, be sure there is gas in the tank, aye?
