pumping gas at startup

ive read that its a very bad thing to pump the gas while trying to start your car...(i have an 86 tpi)

i did that once one day when trying to start my car because she was giving me a LITTLE trouble starting up, and it did start up, but died..

now my car wont start up, what would pumping the gas while trying to start your car do to damage the engine?
