I've used a graden sprayer connected to the carb. If you have a fuel filter, then you probably have a smaller rubber hose in the line. I take the nozzel off the sprayer and connect the sprayer to the rubber hose. Put gas in the sprayer tank, pump up the sprayer just a few pumps, lock in on, and start the engine. Before you start the engine, remove the fuel line from suction side of your fuel pump. I also put the fuel line which goes from the pump to the carb in a jug, reattach the suction line to the pump to see how the fuel pump is working. The garder sprayer will let you run for a hour to verify your fuel delivery. I'd suspect the line out of the tank is partially plugged. Since you have another truck, swap out the coil, as I have had times when an engine would run OK until the coil got hot and then would just cut out and then won't start until the coil cools down. Hope these suggestions help. | | | |
