Default Engine wont fire

Just put on a new a new fuel pump on the 87 Marathon and it still wont fire. It will start if you spray starting fluid in the carboretor but then when that runs out is shuts down. ANy ideas?

If the pump is pumping fuel there is probably just dirt in the carb main jet. clean the carb and go..

My '01 was doing the same thing. Pull the carb and clean it. The float bowl was full of gas crystals. Once I cleaned them out, it started right up. Only takes a couple minutes (on my machine, don't know enough about them to know if yours is different) and is really simple.
