hey guys im having some trouble getting my 22r to run good. i have searched everywhere but i couldnt find anything that was similar to my problem. its a 85 toyota pickup that i just swapped a used 22r from a 88 i think thats what the guy said. the motor starts and runs good for a couple of mins and then starts to sputters and spit thick black smoke from the exhaust and then just die out. so its running rich for sure and i checked the fuel level on the bowl and its completely full of gas when its running. i know the fuel level on the the bowl should be in the middle of the little glass sight. i changed all the vacuum lines when i did the swap as well as the fuel pump. should there be an adjustment screw for the the bowl? i never replaced the return line and the truck did sit for a while a long time ago when it had the old motor and before i took the gas tanks out and cleaned it. well if you have any suggestions on what it might be please let me know. thanks

Any suggestions?

There should be an idle/mixture screw and a fast idle screw on the pass side of the carb. If you have just a chilton's manual, it shows where they are on the breakdown of the carb.

i had the same exact problem i took the carb appart and bent the tap on the float so the gas level would be right then i adjusted the air fuel mixture screw and replaced the fuel pump and she is runing great

Thanks for replies. I have tried to adjust the fuel mixture and fast idle screw but that didn't change anything. What all do I have to take apart on the Carb to be able to get to the tap on the float, and how do I know if it needs to be bent back? I have replaced the fuel pump with a new one as well as the plastic spacer that came with it. Well I appreciate the help guys.
