I just got my pump back together again and indexed the throttle linkage at 10 and 4 o clock on the throttle shaft. I started it up and it idled lower than it did before and when I try to give it some throttle it dies instantly. Is there a possibility I am 180* off on the throttle linkage? It doesn't seem like you could even wind it up that far off but I'm not sure. My battery also is not liking turning over the engine in this cold which is killing me. Thank guys.

 

sounds like you are one notch off not all trucks are 10 and 4 adjust one at a time

 

that would make it stall when i try to rev it up though?

 

Yes. My Buddy Just Did The Same Thing Friday.

 

When I did my spring, I was very carefull to index my throttle exactly the same as when I took it apart. When I started the truck up afterwards it wouldn't idle. I double checked everything, and I had done it correctly. I had to crank my full power screw in about 4 turns before it would idle again. The truck ran great after that.

 

when i put in the 3200 spring my truck idled high and would die if you gave it throttle... reindexed everthing and now she runs like a charm... easy enough mistake to happen hope this helps
