Sorry to flood the forum as soon as I have joined!
I have a bad flat spot on acceloration and some hesitancy when the engine is cold.

Kickdown is fine, high speed fine, but I have to stomp about on the accelorator much more than I'd like.

I plan to take the car to a carb specialist but would rather go in there and know what they should be looking for - this may help me avoid getting ripped off!

Also, considering asking for a price for a replacement carb (if the repair is extensive).
