    Thumping / popping while driving...wheel bearings?

    The other day my camo love-machine started to get a little salty on me. Started doing this whole thumping deal when I go over, like...5 mph. The faster I go, the more it thumps. I cant really tell where it's coming from. But I can feel it in the floorboards and it seems like it's somewhere...

    Thanks so much for your help, guys! I did as yall said and cleaned the float and metering block. I bought a TricKit for it. When I pulled the float off, it was obvious that was the problem. Here's a picture: Anybody know what that is? Anyways, cleaned em both out good. Replaced the...

    Going to check vacuum lines again, and possibly clean the float/metering block. Only problem is, would I NEED to replace the gasket? I'm guessing yes.

    Just a little update. I hadn't got to try anything, and I probably wont have anytime for awhile (school, vocational school, work). I've had the truck up for sale for a week or so now, before it crapped out on me. I been getting offers every other day. My selling price was $2000. I got a guy...

    Alright, great. Is there a manual or a step by step I could use? Could it also be a brake booster vacuum leak? A mechanic told me that could be it.

    Ok, I think I'll try that next. I pulled the fuel line off and it looked fine. Now, is this something I could do? I had a friend tell me it'd be real hard to do. I dont have much mechanical experience...only with motorcycles, and their carbs are much simpler.

    Yeah. It's got some little black particles swimming around in there. But it's pretty new. My old one fell apart a few months ago. Ok, I'll do that.

    Well, I ran some Sea Foam through it and it didn't help. Truck is back to stalling. It works fine when it first starts up, but I'll drive around the block two times, and it starts stalling out. I took the air filter off the carb and opened the throttle and steam came out. Should that...

    Sorry about that. It's a 650 Holley on a 350 engine.

    Thanks! I will do that tomorrow. Yes, that's correct. Only stalls when I'm going slow while slowing down for a stop or turn.
