need help with '88 Accord...not getting any gas to carb.
I have no clue what to check since this car is carbed..
It will start and run fine, until it runs out of starter fluid
the throttle cable is broken, so we tried opening it up manually...but as soon as you open it up any, it just dies. We know it has gas, but it's just not getting it to the carb.
We're going to replace the FPR and the fuel filter...
After that, what else should I check?
Fuel Pump?
It's got 148K on it, and ran perfect until it was parked. Sat for about 6 months.
TIA for any help!

Well...
turned out to be the fuel filter.
For some reason it wouldn't flow AT ALL.
But now the throttle cable is broken....how hard is that to replace?
