[T3] Hesitation/Stumbling/Vibration


I'm going to try to find time this weekend to give Nelly a tuneup, Rebuild
at least the Left Carb (it's leaking somewhat) check on the timing, and
balance etc....  But maybe this rings a bell with someone.

1966 Fastback, Stock 1600, 009 Dizzy, Stock dual carbs, nothing changed
recently

as of late when holding a relatively steady throttle at above 40-45 I get a
little "stumbling" for lack of a better word, I can feel the car lurch up
and down just a little as if I was on a slightly bumpy road or fuel was
cutting in and out.  Above 50-55, if I step on the gas from a steady speed I
feel a vibration for a second or two before it smoothes out and continues to
accelerate.

Also, maybe not related, maybe it is, but she seems to be getting harder to
start.

Any ideas as to what might be causing this?  I have only felt this in the
past few weeks, and it's not horrible but I fear it's signs of something
going wrong.
