<VV> 2 performance questions

[J. R. Read]

Can't say about # 1, but on accel pumps - how long since you did them last?  Over 2 years?  Have they had a chance to dry out in the meantime?  You might want to start adding Marvel Mystery oil to the tank each time that you fill it.

Later, JR

1.  What is the consensus for how long to run a distributor cap, rotor, and plugs these days?  Yes, i'm using a pertronix I. 
  
2.  In a well used, (not abused- it came to me this way, no smoke, but it lacks in power somewhat) stock '63 84 hp engine and pg, what would cause it to briefly hesitate (almost like a quick cough) when I start to push down on the gas pedal to accelerate, as in when you start out from a standing stop such as a stoplight?  (The accelerator pump cups have been replaced.  It did it before, and still does it now.  This engine also is using a Pertronix I )
