Re: I need help getting my trucks engine running!!

Nice truck, congratulations.

You can make that truck run without a carby fitted, you have proved it runs.

I would be looking at power supply to the coil.
If the voltage to the coil positive from the key is low, they will run like crap or not at all. but will fire up when cranked as they get full power to the coil when the starter is in.

Take a small jumper cable, and hot wire it straight to the positive of the battery to the positive of the coil.

It should start and continue to run.
