The carb still has a delay when I step on the gas. Works fine if I sneak up on it. Why?

That could be a number of things but suspect #1 would be the carburetor accelerator pump. Either the plunger is worn out,



Agree with that. Probably just a dried out accelerator pump. When you look down the throat of the carburetor and pump the throttle do you see a good strong stream of gas squirting into the carb? If not the pump is the culprit. Maybe it's time to buy a kit and rebuild the carb.
