I just bought a 1979 gmc k15 sierra, when I test drove it it was running fine but since I brought it home, its been stalling quite a bit when shifted into gear, usually it stalls at low speeds or when stopped at a light, I'm thinking it might be the carb, or timing problem is im pretty much clueless as to how to work on it, any iddeas or hel to solve this problem?
