Well it took me a little while but I finally cleaned the carb and replaced the accelerator pump. The pump looked pretty crispy, otherwise the carb was clean. Everything works as it should, no problems on hard acceleration. Thanks to all who helped.

Thanks for the advise @Just Carbs I will get going on that carb right away.

@MJFUR I appreciate any advise given by all the members here, as I am learning about cars. What I don't need is being talked down to, and receiving negative remarks. I would really appreciate some helpful and constructive insight. Thank you.

Thanks for the reply. Ill check timing tomorrow, and update.
