Carb Question
Did a cruise through town last night for car show and the truck kept loading up at idle. It's a new carb, what needs to be adjusted.

Without any more info about your experience, my first guess would be float set too high, or stuck needle and seat. Just a guess though. Good luck and keep on truckin'........Jerry

Is it new, just a thought but is your choke maybe sticking or is it a manual choke? Doug
