back up..
your bog.. can be from simple stuff.. from float level being wrong. to the vac. advance can being junk or stuck from lack of use..
start with the basics.. the carb adjusted wrong could be all thats needed to fix your problems..
get a motors manual for your years and start with basic tune up stuff first

I don't see that we've determined it's actual bog rather thn a simple hesitation upon tip-in. A bog is s serious dead spot where the motor refuses to accelerate when the throttle is opened and the vehicle actually slows. A hsitation, however, is a quick blip that cures itself in a second and shows no symptoms again until the throttle is taken from idle to open. I think we should learn more about the symptom before throwing out a million cures for what we have yet to determine.

Ok so let me try and explain a little bit better what happens. When you push down the accelerator If you push It down a tad to much It bogs down and seems like the motors about to die. The car slows down a lot! You have to let off and slowly push It down to keep going. It seems to do It no matter what speed your going.

Are you able to cruise at hiway speeds okay, but not accelerate? Can you reach hiway speed easily if you don't give it too much throttle, or does it not want to really go that fast?

I can reach about 45 easily if i slowly accelerate. Thats all the faster Ive had a chance to get it up to though.

You may want to check for fuel delivery problems such as pinched line, plugged filter, or failing fuel pump.

Fuel delivery could be an issue, so you might want to check fuel pressure as well.

Could be a bad pump, pinched or collapsed suction line, or plugged strainer in the gas tank.
You can check pump health and strainer restriction with the gauge I mentioned before.

Thank you for the info. This is what I had originally thought It was.
