Old truck has been running fine until recently. Died while driving. Cleaned the fuel pump bowl out and truck would fire and idle but would not let me drive at any speed without dying. Pulled the carb, cleaned and put a rebuild kit from LMC in.
I must of did something wrong cause now it will only fire with a squirt of starter fluid and than die.
Yes, the fuel pump seems to be pumping. Before I pull the carb and start to backtrack, got any sugestions?
Truck is an unrestored '47 with original 216, saved from a South Dakota farm last summer.
Thank for the help.
