Idles fine, but no acceleration
I got a 89 GTU non-turbo.
It idles like a champ, if you give it a slow feed of gas it will rev up smoothly too, but when you give it a normal amount or floor it, the engine boggs down, backfires, and eventually dies out.
Anyone else ever dealt with this before?

I think I've read about 80-90% over the last few months while troubleshooting my own lean stumble.
I'm sure I'm forgetting a key word or two here, but anyway I hope it helps.
