dead spot
I've got an 83 bronco with a 351w It's got a bad dead spot when accelerating. Can somone give me some ideas what to look for. Ive checked for vacume leaks and re-adjusted the carb already. I've got a edelbrock performer manifold with a holley 650 carb if that helps.

Take the aircleaner off, and with the engine off, look down the carb throat while pushing back on the throttle. You should see two strong streams of gas squirting out. If you get weak dribbles, or nothing at all, there is something wrong with the accelerator pump system in the carb.
