Installed a new Rochester B carb 2 weeks ago. Then adjusted my slipping Hydra-matic, and it shifts fine. Now today my throttle sticks. It will drop down if I tap the pedal a couple of times, but still isn't decelerating like it should. It is scarey when the truck is wanting to run away from me. What do you think?

Did you get a Rochester B or BC (with automatic choke, as originally equipped)? I doubt if this is the cause of your problem - just asking.
