Started a new thread to get more prompt help haha. anyway i jumped the car and it started and took A LOT to get it to run. When it did run it ran for a short amount of time and stalled. It does this continually. It runs very sluggishly at first and then once it starts idling it dies.. almost like it's not getting gas but i'm almost positive it is. I also noticed that the carb was spitting quite a bit.. Help please!!

p.s. I've checked the ignition system and it's fine
