if you take the fuel line off the carb do you get fuel? is it a elect. pump or mech?
I once had a problem with my 89 camaro not wanting to run. it acted like it was starving for fuel... it turned out to be a pluged inline fuel filter.

There were several different engines and fuel delivery systems available in 1982. What does your car have?
