Morning Allan,MY TRUCK IS FIXED!. After many hours of trying to find the problem I have had with this truck for about a year I finally found it. I got my book out for the carb and got my vacum gauge out and went all over that carb. I made some very minor adjustments and my problem just kept getting worse. Met my wife for lunch on Monday and it started running bad in the parking lot, wouldn't hold a steady idel, backfire and stall that kind of stuff. Much to her dismay I jumped under the hood in the reasturant parking lot while she while she tried to keep it running I was shaking wires and messing with the carb. While taking the breather off I bumped the dist. and it started running better. It had a new cap, rotor and Accell coil put on just a year ago. When I got home I pulled that coil off after setting a hour it was still very hot to the touch. New coil,cap and rotor and it is running great. That coil must have been bad since I put the motor in a year ago cause it never has ran smooth like it is now. It allways loped alot and I just thought it must be the cam I put in it. Mr. she runs now. Whoooooooooeeeeeee! I thank you for all your help and advice. Even though it turned out not to be the carb you gave me a great place to start and taught me some things I didn't know about my carb.If I was in NE I would run by and take you for a ride, you wouldn't belive the difference it made.Thanks Allen
Paul
