Help! My car will start but not run! 200 1984

Ok, so I am having a fun day working on my car when all of a sudden, my car wont start, drove it to a place, parked for like 5 minutes, then the thing wont start at all. The next day, I barely nurse it back to my place, thank good it was only a few blocks, to continue working on it. What it will do is turn over, run for maybe 2 secs by itself and then die, it will stay running longer if a pump the gas. At first I thought maybe is was the Mass Air Sensor, but when that went out last April, when I would start it it wouldn't respond to the throttle. So I am pretty sure that my car is getting two of the holy trinity, air and gas, is it not getting enough spark? Oh please some one help me before I just say screw and put a for sale sign in the window! Thanks!
