More Problems!!

Ok Boys, I need some more help, my car is running ok now after the fuel tank issue on my "lady in distress post" but whenever I get to about 2000/2500 revs the car sort of stutters then pics up again especially if your accellarating gently, it also does it at about 4000 revs when you go just over 80 mph!  the car also seems generally a bit slower! have changed the air filter and have today ordered a new hose to replace the one from the exhaust manifold to the carb and a new rubber gasket that sits between the air box and the carb as the box was moving about a bit.

Is there anything else I need to be looking at? or can try?  :dontknow:

Its a 1500 GL.

thanks in advance.

hi, i'm assuming ur fuel  tank issue was water in the tank? if it was u may need to clean the carb out or change the fuel pot infront of the carb (mounted on the middle two rocker cover bolts) sounds like crap in the fuel still.
