My truck would all of a sudden just die on me..like if gas wasnt going to the carb. When I would rev the engine it would just turn off but start right back up. I went to pep boys to buy some carb cleaner and on the way home the truck just turned off and I could not get it to start again. Luckily there was a auto shop right were my truck stalled. To make a long story short the mechanic put a wire from the alternator bracket to the chassis. He said the engine needed to be grounded. Does this seem right?? I didnt have time to pick up the truck so I havent driven it. Is there another location on the engine that could be grounded? I have a 74 gmc w a 350 smallblock
