Ok the 81 just died and I think it's the fuel pump. I took the air filter cover off to see if fuel was coming out of the carb and I did not see any fuel. Is there a test I could do to ensure that the fuel pump is bad?

Ok hookup a fuel can to the pump and it started working. So I reconnected the lines and it ran for 1 min then stop. It must be the tank or the rubber fuel hoses the tank. I guess I will redrop the tank and take a closer look at everything and hope I fine something?

Yes I can blow in the tube and it is not clogged. Each time that I drop the fuel tank I took out about 10 gallons of gas. Could the angle of the stainer tube have anything to do with it? I am about to give the car to the vette mechanic to let him figure it out
