I have put new spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap and rotor. I can keep it running if I pump the accelerator but as soon as I stop it dies.

I also took the fuel cap of and had my son turn the ignition to 'on'. I could hear the fuel pump come on. Can the fuel pump be bad even if I can hear it come on?

I also checked the fuel filter and it is not clogged at all.

check to see if fuel filter is plugged if that's OK check fuel pressure sounds like a bad fuel pump

Check to see if its not a bad relay ? or fuse ? Check the ground on the fuel pump as well. I also agree with the above guys in the the fuel filter too. it could be a number of small things. start with the easy things the relay and fuse, then go onto the filter then the pump

Youve covered the spark now look to the fuel as these the other two dude mentioned. Fuel filter or carb/inj problem my guess

The fuel pump. It's not getting gas.

check the fuel line , it may be clogged or there might be a clogged passegeway. The car might be overheating and causing a vapour lock if your car has a carburated car. Make sure you are using the correct fuel for the season and the car.

Have a clean air filter. Clean the carb, with carb cleaner. uhmm can be a number of things though, but if you pump it and it will run, it must be a gas problem, so the carb is what I would say.,
