I bought this truck for my 13 year old to learn about engines. When we got the truck, it would start if you primed the carb, run for awhile and die. So far, we have: Rebuilt the carb Replaced plugs and wires dist. cap and rotar points oil/filter fuel pump put in an inline fuel filter timing looks good
Now the truck will eventually start. Seems it takes awhile to get gas from the tank to the carb. Then it will run pretty good in park or neutral, and can rev pretty good. I can see gas going through the inline fuel filter.
I have taken the truck for approx. 1/2 mile ride, then it dies. Problem seems to be when truck is moving and gas is sloshing around. Right now I only have 1/8th of tank while I'm playing with it. I really didn't want to put more in, in case I had to drop the tank. When truck dies, I don't see any gas going through the inline fuel filter. Like it can't get it out of the tank. I took the gas cap off in case the gas cap was causing a vacuum. That didn't help. Any ideas?
