I opened up the Carter W1 and it was dusty. I blew it out. I didn't see any gum up. Accelerator pump works. I put in a new in-line see-thru gas filter between fuel pump and carb. I'm getting gas. I wasn't getting fuel in the begining. Fuel pump check valves were fouled with trash from the tank. I noticed cracks in the diaphram and got a new fuel pump. The battery is 2 years old. I just put it in the truck and it was plenty hot to spin the engine. I forgot to put this info in my first post.
I got the truck in 2001, ran it once in a while, put in new wheel cylinders and master cylinder. I parked the truck 4 years ago for lack of time to work on it. I'm really pleased today that the clutch wasn't stuck or one of the wheels hadn't locked up.
I'm going to make time to go through this thing to get her running better.
Thanks for the reply, Pete. I'll report what I find next.
