Default 1990 chevy blazer won't start unless gas in carb

okay so i put gas in the carb, and it starts right up for a few seconds. i replaced the fuel pump and the fuel filter then it ran great, then it just quit starting after about a week or so, it will only start if i pour gas into the carb. any ideas would be great. thanks

Can you see fuel squirting out from the injectors on the throttle body?

Remote starter trigger. $12.00 at Autozone. Then you can stand right there and turn of while you're watching it. Try HERE.
