I think I got everything worked out today. I blew air into the gas tank while holding my hand over the opening. The line that feeds the fuel pump was disconnected. When gas started pouring out I reconnected the line to the pump
and bingo withe air out the line I was in business.

I even took a trip around the block to see how it would run and everything seems to be ok now. I even let it sit for a few hours to see if it would restart without putting some gas in the carb and it started right up.

I will have say these trucks are a special breed, I have never had to do this with any other vehicle i have owned. Thanks Midniteblues for the tip about blowing air into the tank. I would also like to thank everyone who responded
to my post.
