Since you stated that the acc pump works then the fuel pump must be working.
You also state that pumping the throttle (Which manipulates the acc pump) keeps the engine running & you did that all the way home.
These symptoms would suggest to me that main metering is clogged up in the carb.
Pop the top offa that baby & have a look inside!
