Re: heard this one yet????
When you accelerate you increase RPM on the pump it could be weak at low RPM. Just a thought.

Re: heard this one yet????
question....
the "C" shaped linkage at the bottom of the carburetor, connecting the accelerator pump to the throttle body, can that be adjusted/tweaked/bent slightly to help with anything I've got going?

Re: heard this one yet????
It sounds like you have a stumble when you opened the throttle. I'd take a look at the pump squirt (truck not running) when partially opening the throttle. That is either a low float level (which you checked as good) or the linkage needs adjusting to get the slack out. The pump should move and squirt right when you open the throttle.
