Mercury 2001 30 ELH 4 ST

Motor was working fine did a little work on the control cables. Would not start after doing this work. Sprayed starting fluid into the cylinders motor runs till the starting fluid burns off Put in a new fuel filter, new plugs, tried different gas and gas can. Removed the fuel line that comes off of the fuel pump to the carburetor the pump seems to be working shooting fuel out of it. Could all 3 carburetors fail at the same time, could the fuel pump not be sending enough fuel to the carburetors? When I remove the spark plugs they look dry.
