UPDATE... Upon inspection, the carb is getting fuel into the bowls just fine. The problem was that it's not getting any further than that. we pulled the top off the carb and I tried to blow some canned air through the jets... no go. Two of the jets and six of the air bleeds were clogged. We were able to prime carb and start up the car after we got that sorted out. My new questions are:

1. Isn't there supposed to be gas squirting from the pump nozzle between the primaries to start the car?

2. At what RPM are the secondaries supposed to operate? We ran the engine all the way to 7k and they didn't do a thing.
