1985 FJ60
Weber 38
Truck has been in fine running order, but has not been run in over a year. Got in, wouldn't start, but would with starter fluid, so I figured carb must be gunked up. Double checked to make sure fuel was coming from fuel line upon turning it over, and it was and appeared clean.
Rebuilt carb. Placed rebuilt carb on intake after setting manufactuers suggestions on carb for reinstall, turned engine over and it ran for a few seconds on gas from fuel line then stopped. Would not restart. Starter fluid again would kick it over, but engine dies after it's all burned up.
Waited a day thinking maybe I flooded it, still same as above.
Vacuum hose was confirmed to be connected. Not sure if it actually has a vacuum...
Any suggestions from those running Webers besides switch back to stock? I much appreciate the help.
I am new to this forum, so please excuse me if I missed any of the intricacies!
