okayy man will do, ima get a compression gauge from work today.

 

is there any way with me puttting exhaust on the truck causeing it to run lean by putting back pressure on the motor???

 

okay, compression is 130 to 145 on all of them, i think its the carborater tho, the two screws on the front of the carb witch are the fuel mixture screws i think i backed out 1 1/4 of a turn and idled it down and now it dont back firre at all but it dont sound as mean at idle anymore it idles smooth know, think theres trash in there causeing it to run lean at that setting?

 

if your backed them out you richened up the mix I thought it sounded like a lean pop the mean sound was probably a starving motor lol if it's smooth it's right

 

okayy then man, it didnt do it till i started finding rust and got exhaust put on the truck then it started to back fire threw the carb

 

well that's weird make sure the carb is clean inside if it is then you should be fine

 

yeahh, im thinking it needs to be clean but i aint never been in one or adjusted one before so it will be a learning excperiene for me

 

some might scoff at this, but i've done it with pretty good success.

run a full bottle of seafoam through a half tank of gas.

if it is just varnish, the seafoam should clean it out pretty well. if it is debris, you'll have to clean it the hard way, but seafoam is pretty good stuff, but it will fix a dirty fuel system problem about 7/10 of the time

i do it as a matter of maintence on all of my vehicles,

 

okayy man thanks ill try that first, ive never been in a carb on a vehicale and dont want to if i dont gotta

 

if its running good then leave it and try and see if it runs good through all driving ranges
