the reason i said that is if the seconderys get loose on a q-jet (and the do all the time) they will open to soon and dump to much fuel making the motor bogg down. if it does all right until you accelerate fast then it coulb be the seconderes, but the rest of the carb sounds ok. you can check the vac adv. by taking a vac. hose with full vac. on it and hook it to the vac adv. and it should change the rpms. if nothing happens the adv. could be bad. be sure the choke is open when you check the seconderes. when you push them open they should have a lot of tension on them. on the mixture screw they would effect the idle only.
