Re: Hesitation on initial acceleration

"In addition to a stiff accelerator, there is a "dead spot" just off-idle that seems to be a lean condition. The accelerator pump was just replaced, which helped this condition a bit, but it still seems to be a factor in smooth acceleration."

I would look into a possible intake runner leak or worn throttle shafts/bushing ( which may also be the culprit of the sticking linkage). A vacuum leak at either will give you the lean condition and the hesitation that you are experiencing.
