Default I Could Only Take Soo Much

I can only take so much aggrivation with my Mammoth ST. The current problem: Fuel is not being sucked into the carb when I prime the engine. I find it hard to believe that anything is kinked or whatever because the truck hasn't been ran for a total of 10 MINUTES. If you have any further questions about the truck, feel free to ask, I'm all up for constructive criticsm or advise. Thanks in advance!

Check your trim, the carb needs to be somewhat open.

I got my truck running, it turns out there was some gunk in the carb. I blasted it out with Nitro Car Cleaner. My next question is: Where should I put a fuel filter on my truck? (Any pictures would help, Thanks!)

anywhere on the line going from the tank to the carb. It doesnt really matter where you put it just as long as you have one on. Just about anywhere is fine but i tend to put it dead center in between the lines. Another words if you fuel line is 6 inches long then i put mine at 3 inches from either end. But basically it's just up to you where you think it's look best.
