Seems like it's starving
Just recently finished getting my F100 registered, figuring it would be the best way to find any driveability issues. The truck sat for about 14 years before i got my hands on it.She starts right up, and seems to run good when it's sitting in the driveway, so that's a plus. after it warms up, the oil pressure drops to the low side of normal, and she's a bit ticky on the driver's side. It's a 400, so I figure it's just time for some bearings, isn't knocking or anything like that, just ticky. Here's the problem. Get going down the road, no problem. After a few seconds of acceleration, she acts like she's starving for fuel. It has a new fuel pump, so I know that's good. Could it be a restriction at the carb inlet, or possibly a clogged fuel pickup. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
