Getting the Wheeling Fever
Ok so I have recently replaced my carb and by doing so it made my truck actually run ok. So now it will run good but at times i get this sputtering. Its kinda like it is miss firing. I have the timing set correct and everything good. Wondering if maybe its my dizzy going bad? or any other thing anyone knows about. I have a 2.3 pup.

Did you start with simple items like new spark plugs and wires? Good gas? How are you checking your timing? What was wrong with your old carb? Does it sputter only when cold/ hot, at idle? Is it running lean?

new plugs, new wires, carb was all messed up and sticking. needed to be done. sputters randomly. checking timing with a timing light and a tach. dont know if it is running lean. the new carb has a fuel mixture screw and the stock one did not.
