This one had me baffled and was thinking someone thinking it was funny and was jacking with my truck. I drove it to work, well to get my work car about 3 miles. It ran just fine but it was really cold....ok 28, that's cold to me. Ran just fine. Got in it to come home and spit, sputter, cough, choke, buck, backfire......and would go about 20 mph all the way back home. I did notice some black soot on my work car so I checked fording exhaust for added water. None found. Checked filters and were clear for the most part and allowing fuel to flow. Did a carb rebuild kit and back together. Fired it up and about a mile from my house it left me walking.........only thing I didn't check was in tank pickup tube. Thin it hit me. I had replaced a leaking fuel filter/ screen at the carb. I picked one up from NAPA and not NOS. Found the issue. The civi filter screws in farther then the original and was restricting the fuel. There is a filter on the return so I put it on the fuel in a poof problem solved.
