Eh, your right, uneducated response. I had no idea what he was implying about wrong plugs...

I should have mentioned this engine was rebuilt a while ago but my dad is betting on that it has'nt even gone over 15,000 miles yet. He owned it and barely drove it and then he gave the truck to my brother. Which he drove, but I know less than 5k miles a year...

So really, there should'nt be extreme amounts of carbon buildup. The worst I would put my money on is that the carb got all gummy cause it does'nt respond to a tune like it used to.

..well, I have'nt come to some sort of solution to the reason why it started. My brother is pulling the engine tomorrow, so in a little time I will be getting the opportunity to tear it down and figure out why it did what it did!
