it ran for about 10 minutes after I put the new carb on. After that its a minute tops. Engine is no where close operating temperature.
will do, later after work today. Got a mechanic coming to look at it maybe today.
I missed this !
The only thin I can think of that could cause that kind of a problem is a sticking float. Fuel comes up past the float and stalls the engine. I've seen it before.
They werent even really that burnt, just charred. Copper wasnt even exposed. Most of it was relegated to the wires to the pick up that were just changed, and the coil wires. not even there anymore.
Can you take a photo of this area ? If those were burned, the wire may no longer be conductive.
Gas gauge is fine, and the gas in the tank is good.
You are on thin ice my friend.
You suppose it is feasible to disconnect the fuel filter, and blow air back through the fuel line to the tank? If there was a blockage, would that possibly dislodge it. I am thinking there might be a blockage.
OK, so I took the gas cap off, started the truck, and it died. So i left the key on, and the electronic fuel pump was sounding strange, like it was struggling. went and looked at it, and the hose was collapsed behind it (between the pump and tank. So this is leading me to believe that the fuel pick up tube is being blocked/clogged.
