Picked up my first classic truck
If she still has the stock Rochester carburetor, yes. The fuel line running into the carb has a 1" fitting that threads into the front housing. That fitting releases the stock fuel filter & spring.

Truck dies on the side of the road. Any suggestions?
I still keep thinking about those pickup filter screens inside the fuel tanks. Imagine some debris clogging it up, starving your fuel supply.

Truck dies on the side of the road. Any suggestions?
Maintenance history? Fuel filter been replaced in the last 12k? Pick-up sock inside the tank(s) could have enough debrie/trash on it that it is clogging up. Stop the truck, then it all falls back down??- BadBowtie
