    It would appear we are not getting fuel to 4 of 8 cylinders. Firing order is 12784563 .... we are not getting fuel in 1 7 4 and 6 ... good spark, new wires, plugs, points, and new rotor ... cap is new too ...

    Is my carb buggered? Seems like half the carb is just not delivering fuel as those cylinders are all fed from one side of that carb, no?

    Am I way off base? Just a coincidence? Lol

    I pulled the carb off and am taking it back to the city ... Going to see if I can find someone to rebuild/clean it.

    DEADMANSCURVE my first word : truck

    car / engine info ? carb number ?
    check firing order and engine sequence .
    has the car been sitting ? or has this been a new problem since tune up etc ? why do we think its a "fuel" problem ?
    may want to pull valve covers and confirm correct valve movement . obstructions in intake runners ? those are guesses .
