I was driving my truck and it sputtered a little then just quit running. I had plenty of gas but it wouldnt start again. I replaced the fule filter and there's gas coming out when I turn it over. When the filter is hooked up all the way the truck still wont start. When I spray starter fluid in the carburator it starts right up but stops as soon as the starter burns off. HELP, I'm not in the position to tow it to a dealer. Hope you can help.
thanks

Hello !
Check if the carburator has another filter (inline) right at the fuel line connector, if so, clean it and be sure that its "clear" then check the float needle could be "stuck closed".

Good Luck and let us know!
