Re: Need Carb Help in No. KY

This is from a cold start. Truck started fine....after I replaced the starter for the third time, but I had to pump the gas a couple of times to get her to fire. Yesterday I drove it out to a muffler shop to get pipes put on it. The drive was about 10-12 miles and by the end it was still idling at 1500rpm. Never kicked down. I've been battling the choke which wasn't installed correctly from the re-builder and I'm sure it needs some fine tuning so that may be part of my starting problem but this thing has never wanted to come off the high step. I have been able to manually release it and get it to idle but that doesn't do me any good driving. I'll have to wait until I get it back from the muffler shop to try your suggestions.
