To check for fuel with a carburetor, remove the air cleaner, open the choke so you can see down the throat of the carburetor, and look for fuel going into the throat as you fully open the throttle one time. If you do not see fuel, that is likely your problem (e.g., fuel pump failed, tank empty, etc.). If you see fuel, it is likely an electrical problem.

You say you had to jump start the engine before driving it for an hour. If the battery was really low, driving it an hour might not provide enough charging to get it fully charged. But it should be enough to allow it to jump start again. Unless you are getting strong cranking action from your current battery, I would suspect it.

If you are getting good cranking RPM (i.e., 300-400), pull the distributor cap and see if the rotor turns when the engine cranks. If it does, then you may have a problem with your coil or ignition system (you haven't told exactly what you have).
