Last week my truck ( 86 GMC 4.8 engine) started haveing a rough idle so I replaced the in line fuel filter and the carburetor filter and added some sea foam thinking it may have some moisture in the tank or bad gaa. The idle smoothed out but now I might be able to go about a mile before it dies. The first two time it died I let it sit for about an hour and it started right up. The third time I did not let it sit but pured a little bit of gas in the carb and it fired riight up and I was able to get it off the street. So I'm thinking is not a electrical issue but a fuel issue.
Is this a carburetor issue or a fuel pump going bad. I can see gas in the inline fuel filter at all times while it is dying.
Thanks for any suggestions for what to look for.
