That could be the accelerator pump in the carburetor. Also, some fuel filters will let crud past them once they get clogged. This will let the crud get into the carb. Do you know when the carb was last rebuilt?

More possible fun... If the filter is clogged because of rust in the gas tank, the tank will need attention.
