Problems when truck is parked for a while... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I dont drive my 74 350 GMC to often (I have a Jeep and a Camaro) what engine problems may occur since my truck isnt driven very much?? Last week the engine just died on me. I pulled to the side of the road and got it to start again. Felt like gas wasnt going to the engine. When I would go 55+ miles it would just turn off. My buddy who works at a carb shop cleaned the Edelbrock carb out and it seems fine now. Can a carb go bad if the truck isnt used often? What other problems can I look out for? Thanks
