Got it running...
Here's a video of the truck running. Just thought I'd post it in a new post... this is after some modifications (I've been working in it a lot lately) and it seems to sputter around a bit and die. I think it's due to a lack of fuel or wrong carb settings but I made sure to set the float level, and mixture, idle screws right. What do you guys think.

Well I figured it out on my own. Got it running up and down the driveway. Brings up a few more issues though. Someone mentioned that maybe it was because the plugs were fouled by gasoline? What's to stop the new ones from getting like this. I pulled one out after I had it running and the bottom was all black and sooty. This is normal for engine wear correct?

Messed with carb settings, mainly adjusted the float level and the mixture screws but I don't think that was it. I mainly think one of the plugs was fouled. There's a possibility that when I was changing out the wires one of them was loose, but I had checked those before so maybe not. Maybe this didn't do it, I don't know. It's great though, I can take it up and down the driveway without fail.
