1986 C10 Stalling

I have a 1986 C10, it still has the original 305 with a qjet but the original esc distributor is gone. I was driving today and the truck surged a little bit then stalled. I pulled over and it cranked but wouldn't start. I had no tools so I took off the air cleaner and looked down the carb while pushing the throttle linkage and there is fuel spraying. I then hit the key and it fired up. I drove a few miles and it did the same thing. Again it wouldn't start, tried pumping the gas pedal with no luck. I popped the hood and pressed what i believe is the accelerator pump directly and it squirted fuel and the truck fired right up. I repeated that process the rest of the way home. What should I be checking? It feels fuel related but the carb has fuel so I am lost
