I've never done this, but it seems reasonable:
Take your car out, run it until it dies. Leave the ignition switch on.
Pop the hood, run to the front and yank the fuel line off the carbs. If
it starts spraying gas everywhere, then fuel supply to the carbs is not
the problem. If it just dribbles, then you know the problem's farther
back in the fuel lines, pump or tank.
Another thought just occurred to me. Doesn't the B have some sort of
fuel shutoff solenoid? I'm not near mine, but I'm thinking of a unit
under the hood on the passenger side near the firewall by the charcoal
canister. If so, could that be malfunctioning?
Grasping at other people's straws,
