That a start! Nice truck!! popcorn The Truth is out There (Ok 6 cylinder guys a little help) | | |

Make sure you put the filter in the correct way(spring goes in first then the filter --hole end of the filter out).
The large fitting also has very fine threads and can be damaged very easily when trying to thread it back into the carb so make sure it goes in straight and turns easy.

Does it cough(coff), sputter then run ok after ??? or does it remain constant or even cough, sputter and even quit running??
