304 missing in Action

Try two cans of Dry Gas in the Tank.

Sounds as if your Tank made rain or you
paid for water.

The engine usually runs well at low throttle,
stumbles as you open it up & hit water in
the bowls.

I have been driving my 73 Javelin some.  304/auto.  I
just finished a restification project on it.  I did
rebuild the carb and put new distributor cap, points,
condenser.  I have timed it, etc.  

It idles well and runs OK at lower speeds but really
stumbles either when you put your foot in it or almost
anytime above 50 or 55 mph. 

It has the stock Motorcraft 2100/2150 carb. All vacuum
lines have been replaced and I am pretty certain they
are routed correctly.  I did replace the power valve
when I rebuilt the car due to a very rich idle
condition.

I plan to check the timing again tomorrow, but any
other suggestions would be appreciated.
