Hey guys,
Just installed my new gas tank, blew out the fuel lines, installed a fuel filter coming out of the tank and one right before the new fuel pump (yes, they are pointed in the right direction). New line between pump and carb. No leaks. Getting fuel from the tank to the pump. Pump seems to be pumping to the carb as evidenced by fuel filling the glass bowl just before the carb.
The problem is it won't start. If I put fuel directly into the carb, it starts but won't stay running. I can't tell if any fuel is making it into the carb? Using the choke doesn't make any difference. Pumping the accelerator doesn't help either.
Any ideas on what to check? Does the carb need to be rebuilt?

Thanks!
