bananahamuck Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 (edited) Have you checked the valve clearance ,, that will make it run like a pig under load big time... And other than if you want to replace valve cover gasket ,,, it's free. . Edited June 10, 2019 by bananahamuck 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) Jacob the choke cable that is on the truck is not a manual choke cable. The choke cable has a stiff (rigid) center wire so when youyou push the choke knob in it pushes the choke plate open. The Weber run at 3 to 3.5 lbs fuel pressure.

Jacob Posted July 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Update of what was causing the the engine to choke going up hills. took the truck to a shop and after 2 weeks they finally found that something in the carb was causing the fuel blockage. They took the carb apart, clean it, blew out the lines and then put it back together again. They didn’t actually find anything blocking the fuel, but after that it runs great and goes up hills too. All fuel lines from the tank to the fuel filter, pump, carb, and engine were replaced as well. I’m just glad to have my truck back. 2 Quote Link to comment
