Re: My 68 New to site
My first goal is to get it running properly. Having carb problems. Later on will be LS motor. It needs some suspension work as well.

Re: My 68 New to site
Thanks guys for the welcome. I think I am having a fuel delivery problem actually. The truck has a 350 in it with a Holley dp on it. I have already replaced the fuel pump. Truck ran good after wards but now it will not stay running. The carb has no fuel in the bowls.

Re: My 68 New to site
No I have not. That is my next thing to do. I should have changed it when I did the pump.

Also, if it has the stock tank there is a filter sock on the end of the pickup tube that can plug up. LockDoc

Re: My 68 New to site
The truck does have the tank relocated to under the bed. Not sure what make the tank is either.

Re: My 68 New to site
Nice looking truck! Welcome to the board. I would get right in those fuel filters - might be an easy and cheap fix...

Re: My 68 New to site
Well I replaced the filter tonight and still nothing. I am thinking the new pump is no good or I have a bad fuel pump lobe on the cam.

Re: My 68 New to site
Looks pretty good. Get those wheels and tires shined up and you're good to go.
