| carb prob |

| i just bought a 73 f700 dump truck and i think it has either a 361 or a 391 in it; im really not too sure. for the past 2 days, i have been having carb probs with it. seems like it prefers to run on the 'rich' side. ive tried adjusting the float ect but this engine is just running sooooo rich, it makes serious smoke out the exhaust. the exhaust smells like raw gas although i know for a fact it isnt misfiring! this engine has a holley 2 barrel carb on it although it looks different than most 2300 series 2 barrels. it is manual choke and it has provisions for a throttle cable? does this thing have a governor of some sort on the carb? at the very least, i want to let it run cleaner and not so darn rich! i havent pulled the float bowl as of yet! any ideas as to what may be going on here before i tear intot his thing? hey dave~~>need yr expertise again and where did u learn soooo much about fords?? lol |
