Linkage set correctly? Take the filter off and make sure there's just a little gap there of about 1mm?? Turn radio and truck on and give gas and brake and see how the gap looks.

yea there is a very VERY tiny gap

Same exact thing happend to one of my buddy's motors yesterday. If the idle gap is fine, I'd pull the motor and seal it...possible air leak somewhere. (most likely carb neck or backplate...in my friends case it was the carb neck) Also check for any tears in your fuel line. This is the sealer that I've been recommended...

Engines will go nuts if the LSN or HSN is very lean.

RTV Copper iS NOT fuel proof...and will only mask the air leak temporarily.

Let the Meathead think what they want....when there PULLING OUT there hair from a tuning issues....and we all know its an air leak...they can have fun trying to figure it out and ruining there day and possible the motor itself.

I have cracked thermo insullation on my os28 carb. I seal it with copper rtv, lasts for a short amount of hard core run time and needs sealing again, every time. So i agree with the above.

buy some proper sealant and you can forget about re-sealing every couple weeks or so.
