The carb filter is the only one I changed - - is there another one? It was pretty dirty.

As for the carb, if I did the rebuild, I would likely do it myself. I've got a good garage of tools and 20+ years of "weekend wrenching" at my disposal. Although it's been about 23 yrs since I did a carb rebuild on my first car - - '77 Plymouth.

Someone on this board suggested I could maybe do a float/bowl cleaning by simply removing the top of the carb, so that's what I was thinking of - - if that would work.

Another thing I forgot to mention before...

This problem came up suddenly. Drove the truck one weekend and all was well, a few days later, she'll barely go.
