Engine lags and stalls when initially pressing gas-Solution Found?!

Also check the Floats.. could be flooding.. I've had so many problems with my BBD that I've tried, also everything I think lol, too much gas coming in, or too much air.. that fact that you stated it was losing power, makes me think it's one of the two.. people do have some real hatred for this Carb but I drive mine everyday hope that's helpful, I've found tech films from the era that will show you all about it..
