Thanks for the support. I drove the truck this morning for about an hour and it ran fine. :thup:

This thread started almost four weeks ago with the truck running rough. My goal was to diagnose the problem not throw parts at it. With your help I was able to do that. In the end Holley will replace my carburetor and I bought a coil and a set of jets. I learned more about my truck in the last four weeks than I did in the first four decades.
