Im still sitting here trying to figure out what the problem is. I had a thought that it might be the spark plugs. Is it possible that with a bad spark plug it would idle but not raise rpms when given throttle. I was reading alittle only and it was not totally clear online. Thanks. And im gonna post pics of the wires leading from the dizzy. i think someone tampered with the wires coming from it were i think the spout connector is supposed to be. theres splicing and i think its possible why i cant find the spout connector. Thanks.

Hey guys,

Thanks to those who helped me out. So the symptoms that my trucks had was that it would turn over and idle roughly. Once i gave it throttle it would either sputter or die. The engine would not "rev". After looking at the carb and adjusting it and even replacing the choke thermostat. Even after doing that nothing new happened.

I replace the TFI Module and Vola!!!!!! Engine runs and I drove it today around the block for the first time!!! Thanks to those who lead me in the right direction. So over got my 4x4 project up and running for less then $325. Including buying it.B2's Rule.. Not Selling it anymore for sure.
