Re: Truck is not running

Hello again,

Another update. I re-installed the carb and played with the idle adjustment. It’s running but still pretty weak. When I’m drive I have to hold the throttle or it’ll die. I was able to get it running soon after I installed the carb and set the idle speed while in drive… it seemed so promising! Let it sit and cool off for a while and then tried again and yielded the same results, sputtering and stalling.


Up to date: rebuild ignition, checked all plugs and wires.
Changed all vacuum lines
Checked timing (without a tab but it’s running its smoothest where it’s at)
Took the carb off and adjusted the idle speed and high idle.

Where do I go from here?
