The truck sit for about 3 years and I got it to start. now when I let it idel at about 1500rpm's it has a miss. And when I try to drive it it will not accept the gas and runs really rough.
When it idels at 1500rpm the tail pipe gets cherry red. I don't have the tail pipe or converter hooked up, so I know the converter is not stopped up. What should I look for with this problem.

bad gas leaning out the engine or a stuck air flow meter
Are you running on 3 year old gas/ Get it out of there and start with fresh fuel first.

Have you checked the timing? Check to see if you are getting spark to all cylinders. you may have a clogged injector also.The tailpipe allows the gasses to cool. and the o2 sensor on the exhaust pipe is giving a faulty reading and sending messages to its computer if it isn't hooked up. Do you know why it sat for 3 years?

you have to fix your carborator with titanium casing so that it wont overheat and cause engine problems. to solve the tailpipe problem, and this sounds silly, but you should shove a banana up it to stop it from overheating
