Losing Power

tykemp
Can you help me? I am new and just picked up a 80 bullnose with 4.9 l6 and 5 speed. Motor is new as well as carb. It is acting like it runs out of gas in second. Starts fine but when you shift into second it loses power like it's starving for gas. I have electric fuel pump with regulator turned all the way up. It also has a return line. I have not check the fuel pressure but its getting plenty of fuel on startup. Does any one have any advice on fuel starvation with these l6 engines.

Welcome!

My recommendation would be to update your signature with your truck details and then post your issue out on the main page of the forum. That will get it more exposure than in this New Members folder.
