I have question, I have 84 z28 Camaro 350 motor I'm pretty sure I have the pump on right an lines right, but no gas to carb

Your ECM runs the car if the ECM isn't operating a fuel pump it probably won't run very good did you have it programmed 4 the Electric fuel pump if you can disconnect electric fuel pump and connect the mechanical fuel pump backup and see if that works I have an 86 IROC Z28 I have a stall problem my ECM had a bad processor put in a new ECM I got on eBay car runs great have a good day man IROC on
