Hey Dutch, have you tried anything like starting fluid to see if it will run..If it will not run, try removing the fuel line going to the carb..(does this carb have a filter in the inlet fitting???)..once the fuel line is loose.. (BE CAREFUL!) ..try starting the engine and see if fuel is pumped through the line to the carb...if you are not getting gas there.. time to work backwards until you find the problem..(does this engine have the fuel pump mounted on the side of the engine,if yes.. remember the fuel pump has to "pull" the fuel from the tank)..If you are getting fuel TO the carb.. make sure the carb is "taking" the fuel..(inlet filter).if you are getting fuel to the carb,, and it will still NOT RUN..(and won't run using "starting fluid")..its time to start looking for a timed spark..(assuming the engine has compression).. when you have done this, reply back to me on here... thanks... please mark as helpful.. Good luck..
Some had the filter like GM in the carburetor where the fuel line goes in. Some were in the line and some of the fuel injected models had it on the frame rail. If thyis helps any one please rate it thanks
the fuel filter should be where the fuel line enters the carb. Remove the fuel line from carb, then remove the part on the carb that the fuel line attaches to. remove the filter. There will be a spring behind the filter.
possibly bad fuel pump, plugged fuel filter, dirt in carb, plugged main jet, vacuum leaks, check fuel flow at carb inlet, if good, go on to carb itself , remove carb from engine, take to work surface, disassemble carb,clean all parts with carb cleaner and a soft bristle brush, make sure all jets are clear, blow out with air if you can, reassemble carb, put back on motor, attach linkage, fuel line, try engine, luck
94 ford probe does not have carb. it is fuel injection. that hose from fuel filter goes to the fuel rail on engine. if it is a vacuum hose it should go to the fuel regulator also on fuel rail.hope this helps
You may have an internal carb gasket leak or your floats may be adjusted too high.After you run the truck look into the carb to see if there is gas still dripping into the carb bore.Also after running with engine on remove the front fuel level check screw. (have lots of rags under to catch fuel) Fuel level should be right below hole.If it is spilling out it is too high.Floats need to be adjusted up for fuel level to go down.
unfortunatly you are going to have to run new power and a new pump. a fuel injection pump runs 30 psi minimum some of them quite a lot higher than that. a carb cannot have more than 7psi without bypassing the float in it and overflowing the carb with fuel. when going to a carb you will have to get a low pressure fuel pump and completely rerun the fuel system
