Need more help

Ok, truck has gas in it, has new fuel pump, has new fuel filters ( in cannister and inline) Now it gets fuel all the way from the pump to the inline filter and then into the carb (wasnt until I put new fuel pump on it). Still wont start. Turns over great. Any hints on things to look for? It has a 2 barrel holley carb.

Thanks for your help.
Brian

Brian since you have fuel then I would be checking for spark at the plugs.
check point setting and CHECK the condensor in the distributor. It's pretty rare on a vehicle thats been maintained to have a bad condensor but it does happen and it won't run if the condensor is bad.

As a last resort as I believe you said the truck had set for some time I would check to see if the the truck jumped time. Maybe why it was parked.
