how well does the car start? slow to catch? catches and stalls? fires right up?
what is the car doing at idle? smooth? rough?
how does the car react to throttle? stumble and go? goes but no balls? runs like a fat kid chasing the ice cream truck?
how does it react when you get off the gas? falls right back to idle smoothly? falls on it's face? stalls? stumbles and catches?

this is easier when in front of the running car, but i am sure a few people can give some direction if you let us know what you are chasing.

car starts right up
car has a big cam so it has a little lump
from a dead stop the car chokes then goes other then that if u punch it at 30 it will lite the et streets if the rims
when i get of the gas its fine

i dont think that it is the accerator pump. if its an off idle problem try adjusting the 4 mixture screws on the metering block. double check your float levels too

I actually had the same problem and it wound up being the primary pump cam not having enough ramp...So, I switched to an orange one and whallah!

Runs great now!

Hope this helps....Jim
