72 Mark IV won’t start unless gas is squirting into carburetor

[MarkIVZuckerberg]

Hello I purchased a 72 Mark IV but the car won’t start without unless it’s connected to a gas can through a hose. Can someone please guide me to what might be the issue with my car?

I haven’t been able to remove the gas tank I want to remove the gas tank so I can clean the tank and reconnect it but the nuts are stuck
