Edelbrock 1406 Not Pulling Fuel into Carb

I got fuel from the line when manually sucking it using a vacuum tho, isn't the plunger on the carb supposed to do this in addition to the pump shot? Or am I way off
The other guys have answered already but yes you’re off a little. The plunger only squirts fuel from the bowl into the throat of the carb. The pump is there to lift fuel from the tank and fill the carb bowl.
