Stale gas. I got 5 on it.
Check plug wires for proper assignment. No.1 on the cap points to the driver's side front plug which is no.1 plug. Firing order is 1, 8, 4, 3, 6, 5, 7, 2 in a clockwise rotation looking down on the cap. If you're not familiar with installing a fuel pump, it can be difficult because of the pump rod. The rod has to be pushed back toward the camshaft. To hold it while I install the pump, I temporarily replace on of the 3/8-16 bolts on the front of the block with a longer one to hold the rod. Don't forget to put the short bolt back into the block.
As suggested, check for fuel and spark. Use a timing light to check for spark and wire assignment. Check no.1 and no. 6 which are 180 degrees apart and on opposite sides of the cap. If no spark, also check for 12 bolts at thecsp with the ignition switch in the "run" position.

Okay sorry for late response been wrenching now I've put new spark plugs and fuel line shes starting and idling for like 4 min tops but that's it I want her to idle what could be the problem I've got this far can't give up
When you do get it started does it run on its own and then just dies or do you need to play with throttle to keep it from stalling
Free up the fuel line from carb have someone spin engine look for fuel comming out of fuel line...could be a bad fuel pump
