1967 250SE Start Issue

After replacing brake and clutch lines (dang I hate DIN bubble flares!), our customers 1967 205SE won't run. It ran a week ago when it came into the shop, but we never really tested it as it had no brakes or clutch.

It cranks normally, starts to run, then stalls. Engine fires very quickly while cranking - but quits after 1 or 2 seconds, and yes, we did check for gas in the tank and even added a couple of gallons.

I am not familiar with the mechanical fuel injection system used on this car.

Ideas on what issues to look for or pointers on where to look for information would be greatly appreciated. I've searched the archives on this forum but came up with zip, probably used the wrong search terms.
