fuel pump? take off the line at the carb, crank it over and see if fuel comes out...no smoking during this test!

Re: truck wont stay running?

What kind of shape is the carb in?

When was your last tune up? Plugs/wires/filters/etc.

Re: truck wont stay running?

Could be anything from a bad distributor to a stuck float. You'll just have to sort it out one step at a time
