I have a 1980 chevy k10 4x4, truck has a 350 with quadjet carb and hydromatic trans from what I see the truck is pretty much stock air hooked up no undone vaccum leaks or wire harness things that would say it's not orig. To the point I was driving it I knew I was low on gas, right across from the gas station I stall out out of gas. I had a mini gas tank had a little gas in from last year not enough to get home. So I put gas in it, would not start so I pulled the throttle and seen the cable not giving any gas to the carb. So I put lil in the carb it started right up when I put it into drive it shifted out hard and took off fast. I could tell it was running and it's idle was fast I was close to home. I parked it shut it off but still ran than spun a bit and shut off.. I started back up after it sat the idle is very high and if you put into gear it trys to take off. It's a automatic trans.. I've had the old engines rattle and shake when you turn them off. Keep running when I turned it off, to idle and run fast. I figured I park it ask you guys I've never seen this. I was thinking bad gas but it be stalling not running fast. Only thing I did was pull the throttle back to pump gas into the carb just as if I was hitting the pedal. Any ideas thanks
