My 1984 with the 4.9 has a 4 barrel carb but feels like it has 0 take off and gets up to speed very slow. Any thoughts on things I can do to help with this?

Thank you

need more diagnostics to tell whats wrong... have you done a compression test? or any other testing to find out whats wrong?

 

No I'm sorry I haven't done much of any thing to the truck testing wise. It seems like it has a hard time getting to about 40 but after that it seems fine. I know it's not much info to go off of but any help you could give me would be great. Thanks

What trans? 2 or 4 wheel drive? gear ratio? Mileage? Last tune up? without this info really hard to say what is wrong. Glad to help,,,,, with more information.

 

Auto, 2wheel, I'm thinking 3.55 gears but I'm not sure never looked, 155,000, I'm not sure if it's never been tuned up. It's just an old beater truck so it's not been taken care of for most of it's life. I know it needs a new airfilter, and I might do a tune up. I'm sorry for not giving much info I'm used to asking a ? And most every body already knows this info like on the few other jeep forums I'm on.

If ya'll need info I'll be glad to give it to you. Thank you
