I've soaked it in a brand new jug of carb cleaner, put a kit in it, set the float 6 times, blown it out...there's nothing left to do....it runs like crap, one thing I can't figure out...if the idle screw is closed all the way, it won't run, if the idle screw is open more than 1/16 of a turn....it won't run, the needle looks fine, I've owned this truck for 20 years and NEVER cranked the screw down, the truck ran perfect up till a month ago, I drive it almost every day so it's not bad gas....but it's giving me bad gas, and a headach, and a big hole in my wallet if I gotta put out $150 for a rebuilt carb.....but I will, I can't take it any more, it's driving me CRAZY.....HELP
