I got the motor back in the truck, I have had it running by pouring gas down the carb. This thing has fought me every step of the way. First I had no fire due to some dirty points, then the fuel pump wouldn't pickup fuel. I replaced the pump and then the carb was flooding out and dumping fuel down the engine. At this point I was frustrated and decided it was time to walk away for a while.

I found another carb and took it apart ,sprayed everything out and made sure it was working as it should. I will try to get it on, and fire it up later in the week.
