B/U Lights & Carb problems
Howdy,
I have a couple of things that I could use some help on trying to fix.
1) First of all I really need to fix my backup lights, more specifically its a problem in the column because when I lift up on the gear shift they light up. Is there some way I can tighten things up without completely re-building my column?
2) Secondly I have a problem with my carb, it seems that when I step on the pedal just a little too hard that it cuts out and kills the engine.
Is this a problem with my choke?
I have a 73 F-350 Ranger XLT Super Camper 2wd auto, and its got a 2 barrel carb, if that helps.
Thanks in advance for any help,
-Chris

The back-up light switch is located on the outside of the steering column down by the firewall inside of the truck. It is adjustable.
2) Sounds like your accelerator pump in your carb is bad. Also check the timing and vacuum advance unit.
