Fuel Cell quick clarification

if you have fuel getting to the carb then check your linkages at the carb... they are what controls the fuel INTO the carb... the carb itself meters the amount of fuel it receives...

No who ever owned this truck before me had bootlegged the hell out of it. I have a feed and return running to where I think they belong but I'm not completly sure. Anyone have any pics of the carb with the fuel lines going to it. Also there is a check valve on the return for some reason, is that normal??

I can get it up to the carb, but I don't know if it is running to the correct place. You got any pics of where the lines should run too. This truck ran a few months ago with the stock gas tank so I'm probaly just doing something wrong up by the carb. Everything from the tank up to the carb is working correctly because once the fuel pump is on fuel will shoot everywhere if i have the feed disconnected.

And the truck runs!!! PSI needed to be bumped up. And fyi automatic standard carbd 2200's do not have mechanical fuel pumps. I guess it is just the 5-speeds.

Thanks,
