Unhappy No Fuel Getting to Carb

I have an 85 Dodge D150. I have replaced the fuel pump, but still no fuel getting to the carburetor.
I blew backwards from the line going into the fuel tank from the fuel pump, and it's not plugged,
so I can't imagine why fuel is not getting to the fuel pump. Anyone have any suggestions?

Electric or mechanical fuel pump?

Test the pump. Disconnect the line up near the carb, but a hose on it to extend it out AWAY from the engine, crank the engine. Is it pumping any gas?
