Re: 78 Suburban bogs then dies on long grade

Replaced the fuel pump and soft fuel lines, about to go for a test drive.

KW - the filter was absolutely packed with red crud.

Is there a way to clean out any crud in the carb short of a full rebuild? I know that's asking for a shortcut to doing the 'right' thing, but I'm sort of intimidated by the thought of doing a rebuild... though I'm sure I'd get through it with time. Something I need to learn anyway. Just not a good time right now. Maybe a 'partial' tear down just to clean?

Appreciate all the help.
