Ran once for a few minutes, no won't start.

Battery good
Spark plugs fire/tested with spark
Have gas :)

My system goes like this:
Fuel tank> HOSE > Fuel pump/filter assembly (has a return hose from
pump to filter) > HOSE > Carb

Unooked hose from carb and no gas came out when cranking.

I tried cranking again with normal setup.
Unhooked hose from the filter between the fuel tank, and no fuel came
out of it.

I don't know what to trouble shoot next, I'm not a mechanic, but have
been learning these steps via the net, and am now stuck.

Thanks

Fuelpump? is it running? fuses for the pump/pumps,relays for the same?
I'm not a mechanic either,but I had a car and the relays to my pumps stopped
working,well,one first and the other later.
Then the pump in the tank gave up or more correctly the connections on it.

You are unlikely to get any useful information unless you tell us
vehicle::

Make, model, production year, engine type, engine size, fuel type,
induction system type, your location (country), and circumstances
surrounding the failure.
