my carb on my truck was running rich i think it was my electronic choke so i had another carb sitting out side in the elements cleaned it up put it on and it fired right up adjusted the idle and took it for a ride i had to feather it to get it moving the it started popping ( the carb) and like it didnt have power . what you gus think?

Well , a carb driven cold could not run good until its warm , if the choke isn't right on that one either .

well i went out and tried to start it and it wouldnt start like it was trying to flood out so i put a clothes pin on the butterfly and it started right up . for got to mention the carb i just put on does not have electric choke and my intake dont have a hook up for a choke. thought i could just run it that way cause me blazer is the same way . dont ask me what happened in my first post for some reason when i got done typing i looked up nothing was there so i started over. and forgot to mention i dont know anything about carbs.

Let me get this straight:

The second carb you tried is not using a choke?

Did you let the truck warm up (running the truck with no choke will make it buck and kick until it warms up)?

Which carburetors are we talking about?

Once you let the truck warm up and run a while, you can shut it off and pull a couple plugs to determine how it is running. White is lean, light tan is good, anything dark is rich.
