The 1960 - 1966 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Factory Correct Restoration Thread

[jlbruce]

i have a 1966 chevy c10 inline 6 and have a big issue. this truck was barned for 15 years and I just got it running, well kind of. I put a new carb on(1bbl rodchester) and new fuel line along with a new sending unit. I also put in new plugs and points, cap, rotor, timed it to 4 degrees advanced and it now will start takes some turning over but will start and idle but when I try driving it it wont come up to speed it just boggs down cant pull its own weight. what could be causing this? please help done all i can think of. thanks
