What makes a carb go bad? I replaced the carburetor in my truck two years ago and it was running fine until last week. First a lot of carbon came out of the tail pipe. Later it would stall and surge. Now it is very hard to start. Is there an easy fix or should I replace the carburetor again? It seems like it is flooded.

check the choke-does it open when hot?
