I have the same problem. My secondaries apparently havent opened in a long time since they were stuck closed. I am gonna swap carbs to see if that fixes my acceleration problems. If it does, then its rebuild time. Most likely needs a good rebuild to get everything cleaned and working properly. Your jets may be clogged. I am sure that it wouldnt take much dirt to get jammed in there and cause them to not spray correctly.
