Re: My new project truck!
LOL, quit bragging, we are all tired of hearing it!!!
JUST KIDDING!!!
Glad for all the good things!!! I harass you here, and neither of my awesome pickups have engines or transmissions in them... LOL on me!!!
To adjust the carb, find the mixture screws on the bottom of the cab base plate, facing forward.
Carefully screw them all the way in, CAREFULLY, counting how many turns they go in.
Then remove them, shoot some spray carb cleaner in the holes. Use some scotchbrite to polish and clean the tips of the mixture screws. THEN install the screws all the way, carefully, and back them out to where they were before you started.
Now start the engine, needs to be at operating temperature. One at a time screw them in till the engine speed starts to slow down. Back that screw out a 1/4 turn. Then do other screw, same. That should help...
Having an older well used engine there is no telling where the screws will be properly adjusted to. If they are both close to the same, and around 2 turns out, that's not a bad place to be.
Remember to NEVER use gasoline with ANY ethanol in your older carb'd vehicles, if you have a choice, some states only sell E-10
