I have no idea about your carb positioning, but here's one way to post pics...

Go to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket and sign up for a free account. Then create an album for your truck. Upload any pics you want to post on FTE to that album. Have this album open on your computer when you want to post pics on FTE.

While you're making a post on FTE, select the pic you want to post from your Photobucket album. When the large version of the pic is open, right mouse click on it and select "View Image Info". The image info will be highlighted and will look something like this:
http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...ghtsafter1.jpg

Copy that highlighted info (right click / copy).

When you have the spot in your post where you want the pic to be placed, select the "Insert Image" icon at the top of the post (looks like a mountain) and paste (right click / paste) the image info you copied in the highlighted box (just shows "http://" when it opens).

Your pic will be placed in the post.

Hope that helps.

Tushy,
You carb is mounted backwards, the idle mixture screws are on the primary side of the carb and need to be at the front of the engine. We can figure out your issues once you turn the carb around. You might have a vacuum leak from the carb being backwards that is masked when cold from the choke being closed and making it run rich. Once warm, choke opens leaning out carb + vacuum leak= super lean. Runs like crap, dies, no power. Sound like your problem, I bet it does.

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).
