Default 89 accord carbed, heavy hesitation under low thottle and low RPM.

1989 Honda Accord LX 2.0 2 barrel carb.

Symptoms just started today.

It seems like its either completely losing fuel, or running extremely rich.

Under sub 3500 RPMs and under 95% throttle, there is extreme hesitation. If I floor it, it starts to try to catch up... once it gets revved up, it will accelerate like normal.

Not a spark issue. Plugs are new, dist. cap and rotor are new. If it was an ignition issue, it should get worse as the RPMs increase.

Also, when the motor is not under load (neutral) It will rev almost normall, with a noticeable hesitation at around 3200 RPM... I'm assuming this is when the secondary jets kick in, I don't know... I don't know **** about carbs.

Any ideas?
