1970 Ford 3/4 ton with 390 - starts then stall
We just bought a Ford 1970 3/4 ton with a 390. Did a carb rebuild, replaced ignition coil and replaced battery.
Its starting up, then after a few seconds... dies. Sometimes it lasts a little longer about 10 seconds or so. Also, sometimes if the gas pedal is pumped it immediately dies.
Any help would be great.

If I remember right you can run a wire from the + side of battery to + side of coil to bypass ign. Just make sure truck is in park and emergency brake is on.

Got it running and now it died again.
Replaced fuel filter, points and condensor and then it was running great. Sounded excellent. Took it for a few tests drives, fantastic. Hubby then went to go pick up something from the store with it and test it out at hwy speeds... partway back on the freeway and .... dead. cranks but wont start
