Hello,
I did check as you suggested and the accelerator pump was not working. I rebuilt the carb tonight and will try it tomorrow. However after finding the accelerator pump was bad I started the car again and while I turned that throttle linkage and added some gas to the top of the carb from a small squirt bottle and the engine did not rev up. It did not change. It just sounds like it is missing. I have not checked the plugs yet that too will be tomorrow.
