b2200 Doesn't stall with 1/4 tank or more

so I have been having the same problems as previously discussed about b2200s not running well. Mine has been running like crap and stalls constantly, However I just put $20 bucks worth and I drove about about 10 miles without it stalling except for 2 times, when usually i have to turn it off and restart every 2-5 miles... Soon my posts will contain project updates not repair questions!

Also I am ordering a Weber friday...

Fuel pressure regulator? By the way the truck is an automatic so it has an electrical pump in the tank. Also it stumbles upon acceleration no matter how much gas is in it.

You're description is way to vague (haha only because I missed the part in the title sorry.), could be a lot of things. But I'd bet that a weber could fix most of them.

And my carbed truck stalled all the time in the cold. Could have been a vacuum problem though.....

nah I went through everything else, that's why I think its the fuel pressure regulator. i was just hoping for some reinforcement here before i get into it...

Is it a fuel injected truck? Most trucks dont have electric pumps unless its FI. Have you checked the fuel filter? Is there a metal screen on the bottom of the pump that may be clogged? There may be a lot of trash in the tank that is glogging things up when there isnt much fuel in it and that changes when you fill er up.

Nah I haven't, I bought a new fuel filter though just haven't put it in. Its inline right by the tank. From all the research I've done on this topic, everyone is saying that there is an electric fuel pump on the Automatic, Carbed models. I haven't checked the screen either. I appreciate all the feedback but it looks like I'm just going to jump into it tomorrow morning. If I get it running right Ill post what I did so others may reference to it before making their own dumbass posts like mine lol.

before i did the wap in mine it had a fuel pump in the tank on a carbed motor...what year is yours?..Im a driveability mechanic by trade. Get me a little more info and i might be able to help ya out. Does it start hard?....that would be a good sign of the regulator going bad.

awesome man. Mine is an 88. Ok it starts fine, but usually cuts out and I have to restart it a couple times before it warms up. it idles great but a lot of the time it will drive fine for a couple miles then it just bogs out. like theres no firing, when that happens i can lift my foot off the accelerator and it will continue to idle fine. However if i try to give it more gas it just dies. so usually i turn the engine off and put it in neutral and while im rolling ill try to restart it. sometimes it fires right back up, and sometimes it will just keep spinning and wont restart. whenever i go to accelerate it hesitates in the beginning but usually picks right back up. Sorry i know this is a lot of info and if you understand it, i could really use your 2 cents. By the way the cat, dist, plugs, wires, ignition switch and a couple other things are brand new.

without being there its tough to say for sure...but this is the best advide i can give..it sounds like a fuel issue...replace the fuel filter. Then test the fuel pressure. I dont know what the pressure is supposed to be for these trucks off the top of my head. I usually have my computer(from work..duh) in front of me with all that info. If you dont have a fuel gauge, i think they are like 15 or 20 bucks @ orielly's or even napa. Wont do you any good to check the pressure before you change the filter cause if the flow is restricted, it can give you a false reading. The pump may be able to build the pressure but not hold it...like when you step on the gas and the motor wants more fuel...then your pressure will drop...which could very well be your problem...anywho...thats where i would start.

Thank you everyone for your input, I think the FPR fixed it, The only problem now is that my carb is awful. so yeah, that weber couldn't get here quickly enough!
