During all this investigation I also found the throttle plate rod is leaking fuel when the accelerator is pressed. I suspect it was supposed to have new bushings when it was rebuilt, but that was skipped.
I'm thinking of going to a 2 barrel Holley Weber from Langdons with hope of making the thing all better. I like the idea of the electric choke, but realize I will have some problems with making the linkage work.I realize the merits of a single two barrel have been hashed and re-hashed on this board, but i have to ask...am I all wet in thinking this will improve driveability and simplify the matter? I'm really just looking for a nice way to drive grandpas old truck while not getting stranded.
