"Refridgerator" Question

[AngliaGT]

Still working on the '78 Datsun B210.
Not getting gas from the tank.
Blew compressed air from the engine compartment end of the hose - still nothing.
I drained about a gallon of fuel out of the drain plug on the tank - looks clean.
I don't really want to pull the tank if I can help it.
Any ideas?
I want to get this "Daily Driver going",so that I can work on the MKII Cortina (& the MKIII,& the Dodge Dakota,
& the..........

Try blowing air into the tank, just wrap a rag
around the nozzle and hit it for a short time,
if you blow fuel out, maybe the pump is knackered...

I bought a "NOS" pump off of eBay,& put it on the car.
I've been trying to get fuel through the fuel pump,& finally came to the conclusion that the fuel pump just
might not be right (after much frustration & doubting of my
mechanical abilities).
I'm going to try a new pump,& see if that does it.
