I have a 2.0 type IV engine with 44idfs on it. I was going to sync the carbs today and noticed that even when not pumping the throttle the accelerator pump drips a stream of gas down into the throat of the carb enough that its pooling up a bit on the throttle plate. I'm getting popping back through the carbs. Timing is spot on and the valves are correctly adjusted. I take it this is a problem and they arent supposted to do this? It also smells like its still running to rich. I have 135 mains, 200 airs, 55 idles, 36mm vents, and no velocity stacks currently. Mixture screws are set 1.5 turns out. Its also hesitating from idle to around 3K rpm if I step on it hard like its flooding out. Time to put kits in the carbs? Does the jetting for the accelerator pump need to be changed or adjusted?

On top of everything else while I was messing around with fixing the tail lights, the left side brake light quite working. While I had the key on trying to see what was going on with the brake light some wires decided to smoke themselves in the steering column.

When it rains it pours, lol.
Sorry to hear it is all coming down at once. That never helps.
I might be able to weld the split support on the carb. I used to do things like that for a cycle shop nearby.
Find out how much a replacement is first.
Burned wires sometimes start with a bad ground - or a short in an odd place.
I had the connectors on a license plate light reversed once during reassembly and had the worst time figuring out why I kept blowing fuses. It turns out they can only go one way because the housing is grounded and one connector is attached to the housing. The power has to go through the lamp first.

Hesitation/stumble before 3k RPM.

That sounds like an accelerator pump problem. If the pump diaghram is ok then the adjustment of the pump is wrong. Could be either not enough or too much fuel. If the linkage is working right then try a different size pump jet.
