It's a 5.7L V8 with Edelbrock carb. I tried not pumping but it was still hard to start. Also once it starts it dies or almost dies unless I rev it for a bit.

I scheduled a date with our mechanic in a few weeks. I will let you know what they say after they go through it.

Gasoline with Ethanol boils and evaporates quickly causing vapor lock on a hot carburetor. If you can find gas in your area without Ethanol, give that a shot.
