1963 F100 223 6cyl only runs with choke on
I have a 1963 F100 223 6cyl that starts hard and only runs with the choke on. Even after well warmed up it stalls when the choke is turned off and stalls when I give it gas. It has been sitting for several years with gas in the tank. Any ideas? Thanks.

You could put some fresh gas in a jug and let the fuel pump draw it from there to see if it is simply a gummed up/mis-adjusted carb. That would at least eliminate the lines back to and including the tank. Could just be that the "varnish" build up from old gas is causing issues. Old gas does strange things. It really is amazing that it even runs on it.
