only runs on starting fuild

got my truck done yesterday went to start and it cranks but doesnt start.. if i shut it off pump the gas pedal 6 or 7 times then try to start it it starts but then dies.. i changed spark plug wires spark plugs drop the gas tank putt new gas in it and still nothing.. it will run great on starting fluid its carbed maybe a fuel pump idk just want some input befor i start changing everything and blowing money that i dont have.

It might need a carb cleaning, are you running stock carb?

yea weber trucks complete stock i havent touched anything on the motor it sat for a while i had it running great sucked water into the gas then wouldnt start anymore droped the tank putt new gas in it new plugs wired got it started again ran but it wounldnt idle i had to keep feeding it fuel but now it wont even run anymore without starting fuild

When you drained the tank, did you blow out the lines?
Or even clean the water out of the carburetor?

This may sound crazy but take rubbing alcohol and pour half of it in your gas tank. It will seperate the water and grass and eventually evaporate. People told me this and I thought they were crazy, I poured it in my fuel cell and watched it for myself and was amazed. Gave it a day or 2 and she ran like a top again.

Change your fuel filter, may want to get your carb cleaned to if water ran through it.

3oz alcohol to ever gallon of gas! Works like a charm!

water can ruin a fuel filter too.

yea i have an after market filter i changed it after i droped the tank iv never heared of alcohol but ill try it what do i have to loose all the lines were cleaned out i have an old electric fuel pump i ran on my mustang for a lil while so if nothing eles works then ima switch them out havent had time to look at it the good old ball an chain keeps wanting to spend time with me so when i can break free ill check it out
thanks for all your guys input
