All...

We were able to repair the ignition and the fuel pump yesterday.  Thanks 
to all of the great advice and suggestions from everyone!

However, the car is still having some problems, and we think it's the 
Z-S carburetor.  We have verified that there is fuel getting to the 
carburetor and the car will spark and run briefly when we use starter 
fluid but it won't continue to run at all after the starter fluid is out 
of the system.  Any suggestions on where to start looking at the carb 
(or elsewhere?) to see where the fault might be?

Thanks again!

Regards,

Mark
