Hi Y'all, I've just received my truck she looks Great! but runs like poo.

She's a 52 3600 I just bought from a gentleman in Texas Originally she grew up in (the state with Detroit (I can't spell)) She spent a small amount of time in Arizona.

Anyway I also have an 67 Triumph TR4A roadster.

Will be asking lots of questions as I progress.

Welcome Julian. Not sure if she needs a tune-up or just some fresh gas or other fuel issue. Just take it one step at a time and don't be afraid to ask questions. Good luck.

Julian, ahhhh, the fun begins. As Leo suggest, one step at a time and draw on the vast knowledge here on the bolt. Good luck and see you around the garage forums.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

Hi,Julian,and WELCOME to the "'Bolt"! Old gas is usually the "Gremlin",when it comes to performance issues with an old vehicle. These things weren't designed to run on un-leaded gas,either. you may need to clean the tank,blow-out the fuel lines,and replace the fuel pump/filters,and rebuild the carburetor,before you get it running right. Check out the "Engine Shop" thread,and you may find the answer to your questions there,or,feel FREE to submit a "New Topic",if you don't find your question posted. All kinds of topics,here,and all kinds of help!! Happy New Year!!
