To preface this post, I don’t have any mechanically inclined inlaws, that’s including uncles/father.
But my parents dropped the 400 some dollars to get me my first car, witch stupidly or not- I requested 70’s gm or mopar.

So freshly 19 I now own a beautiful 1974 Chevy chevelle Malibu 4 door.
That’s a 250 inline 6

As soon as I got it I replaced the battery and fluids-
And the sparkplugs seem fine- but when I try to turn her over I just get revving and it never QUITE turns over…
My friend noted that the carb wasn’t fluttering when I was trying to start so I’m sure that’s my issue the problem is, I can’t seem to find a book about single barrel Chevy carbs from the 70’s…
Hahaha-

So I need help either id’ing my problem or maybe some litreture to help me rebuild my carb, (possibly even a new set of gaskets)

I’m trying to inform myself the best I can but, ive never worked on ANY car before but this is what I’ve got and I wanna make it work!!!

Any help will be welcome, thank you for reading!
