I'm driving my 54 two-ton again and it's going good now that I found two
cylinders barely firing or not. New plugs got that better. The truck seems to
pop/pop as I drive, like popcorn muffled in a pan. Timing is on mark, vac
disconnected to do it. If I pull the choke out 3/8", it clears up, runs great!
SO, that mean wrong jets? or is choke partially closing maybe when I think I'm
really shutting off? It responds better w/out being overloaded rich acting,
actually accelerates a few mph as I pull it out, and better running overall.
Any ideas what's happening?
