Trouble shooting time hesitation

[GLS-BDR226]

As min385 posted, it's in the line between the tank and fuel pump. Located in the rear driver's side. Mine had a cheap clear fram filter that let debris get into the carb. I'm replacing it with an Earl 85 micron in line filter.

I just finished playing golf and took it out again and this is what it's doing

1) Starts right up but unless i'm pumping the gas it stalls.
2) At 3k rpm it's running fine and no loss of power. Punch it at 3k and it's fine.
3) At 2k steady state it's bogging and hesitating bad.
4) If i take my foot off the gas it stalls.

If the jets have dirt in them wouldn't it restrict gas flow at higher rpm also?
I don't think the secondary are involved at all

I have all day tomorrow and wanted a plan of attack.

Carb main jet?
Gas filter?
Any thing else?

Yep, could be timing not advancing fast enough. Pull distributor cap and check advance mechanism for smoothness. Rust can form relatively fast. If vacuum canister, check vacuum line as we'll.

Do you have a choke? Are you sure it's opening completely soon enough?

Blocked idle feed restriction.

What carb do you have?

The carb is a holly 770 street avenger with vacuum secondary, Remember it was running great so the timing was set correctly and so was the carb. I can I tell if it's the idle restrict and how can I fix them?

The choke is fully open and the distributer is a mechanical advance, Would the idle set screws help if I opened and reset them? Maybe that would clear and junk stuck in the idle circuit? Not really an expert on Carb's

if you hold the choke closed will it idle then?

are you close to Marotta's? either take the car or the carb there.....they'll be able to take care of it
