Re: feels like it runs out of fuel
I had same thing happen. I bouught a rebuilt carb, replaced the fuel pump and lines. Also flushed the tank. I replaced the coil ,and still same thing. Then I replaced the the points. That was it !!!!! I thought it couldn't be ignition, because it didnt do it constantly. I would start the truck, and not even 2 minutes later it would start crapping out. Black smoke and ocasional backfires. Just thought I would pass it on. Hope it helps someone.
