Runs extremely rich (i changed the oil, haven't driven it more than 5 miles, messed around with the carb, etc and it reeks of gas so i have to change that again
I had a 81 P/U and it had a different carb problem sometimes would not idle. Low speed idle jet was getting plugged with rust I think.

You said the oil smells like gas. It might be that the fuel pump is leaking and pumping fuel into the crankcase. It's mounted on the top front of the engine.
