Weber 44 IDF Question Options

[orbit398]

Just looking to see if someone can help pin point an issue I am having – assume it’s a carb issue.

Here is what I have: 2.0 liter with flat top pistons (euro style), has ~160 psi on all cylinders, carb cam, bursch exhaust, dual Weber 44 IDF carb set up, idle jet = 55, main jet = 145, F11 emulsion tube, 200 air correction. Carbs are synced and pull the same at idle as well as about 1500. I live in Houston (sea level).

I have read and followed several write-ups on tuning the Weber carbs. Overall, the car runs great above about 2200 rpm. It idles excellent.

Issue: Still getting the occasional popping. More importantly, while under easy acceleration (throttle slightly opened/just limping along in traffic) ~around 2000/2200 rpm, the engine seems to be missing or it shutters. If I open the throttle just a bit more, it disappears and runs great. I cannot replicate this by just revving the motor up in neutral; does this only under a load??

What could be the issue here? I plan to recheck synchronization/insure carbs pulling equally, spray carb cleaner/starter fluid to check for air leaks, try to ensure butterflies are opening equally. Just puzzled at what it could be.
