TRUCK WON'T STAY RUNNING!
Just bought a 1983 Ford F250, 7.0, manual, dual tank, carbureted, manual fuel pump...
Truck has set lonesome for the last six months, put a new battery in her, filled the gas tanks and replaced the fuel filter.
Truck turns over strong, fires... Then shuts off after 5-10 seconds. Bogs down under throttle.
I double checked the prime on the carb, checked spark ok.
During cranking/firing the ignition coil turned damn near red hot!!!
So, yeah here we are. Any suggestions?
