Fuel pump is working, I disconnected the fuel line and let it pump out a lot of bad gas. I also have a temporary glass filter on the line between the carburetor and the fuel inlet and can view the gas moving into the carburetor. Honestly I believe it was a fluke that it started. The plugs were gapped anywhere from 25 to 65 & where fouled out. The old pump was rusted shut and didn't operate. When it started we poured new gas into the carburetor. We have since tried that several times but it's not working.
The car sat outside for years with no cover over the carburetor, so I am wondering if there's not an issue there. It was also out of oil when I started it, this was my fault as I forgot to check the oil. I have since put 5 quarts of 10w-30 in it.
