Your carb needs rebuilding dude....sitting that long all the o rings and gaskets, needle and seat, accelerator pump, and other vital carb parts are surely dried out and not usable. Buy a rebuild kit or take it off and take it to someone who can rebuild it for you.

In 88 it would have been a throtttle body injection or a TPI system, no carbs factory installed. Going by the spelling and info posted looks kind of like a troll.
