If I remember the facts correctly:

Gas is shooting out of the carb because you are using the accelerator pump on the carb when you are stomping the pedal to the floor.

Vacuum is supposed to draw fuel from holes on the carb into the intake, it does not squirt fuel unless you actuate the accelerator pump. The acc pump's purpose is to shoot fuel during high demand applications to prevent a lean spot in the carb's operation.


Check the timing gear dots for sure.

Is it even turning over? Or does it just crank? If it is just cranking I think it's a timing/valvetrain issue.
