lost

[lil red yarder]

I am working on a 76 f150 with a 390cid 2bbl C6 auto 203 t-case. i don't know fords at all, they are not my thing. the problem im having is that i can get it to start and idle but when you give it gas it dies. my thought was the fuel filter (after removing the air cleaner). I did a tune up and still the same. Granted i cant find the fuel filter. i was told it should be screwed into the carberator and not on the frame rail, its not there. I am lost on what it could be unless the carb need rebuilt. i am looking for anything that mite be the problem.
