Hesitation from stop

I posted this in the Bronco forum and think that was in the wrong place.

My 84 Bronco with a 302 has a hesitation I have not been able to diagnose. I had the 2 barrel carb rebuilt by Ford and just replaced the vacuum advance. It runs great at idle and once moving. I suspect it is vacuum related. Anyone else have a similar issue? It has all the original emission control intact. I'm bringing it home this weekend to replace the exhaust and want to get this fixed also. Thanks!

I would check the accelerator pump linkage... make sure it's tight and has no slop in it.. also check the squirter make sure it is sending 2 streams of fuel down into the carb, do this with the engine off. check timing.

go to the Holley web site they have some good instructions on setting them up
