Easiest way to see if its a fuel problem is to either use a little starting fluid, or put a little raw fuel into the carb and try to fire up the car. If it fires, you know its a fuel delivery problem.

Pop the air cleaner off. What happens when you work the throttle by hand under the hood? Do you see any fuel go in? Does it smell fuel is present?
