ok, here's the story...my truck was sitting for about 3 years and i finally started working on it. i had to replace the head and i cleaned out the carb (Weber) and changed all the fluids and put fresh gas in it. when i tried to start it it was having major issues. the valve timing was off and i corrected it same with ignition. after fixing those it started right up. it ran very smoothly for about a minute then shut off and i cant get it started again. i have spark, points gap are good (btw, i replaced the whole ignition system except the coil), but the only thing that i am noticing is that after trying to start it, i look in the carb and see fuel still pouring into it. is something stuck open? can anyone help?

sound like the float is stuck open... did you clean the car or rebuild it? rebuild kits are only about $30 and come with new plunger for the floats and o ring
