My 83 Berlinetta Camaro has been having Carb problems I think? It is fine at idle and when I drive normal. Lol but when I get on it it seems like the secondary's dont open? The car bogs out real bad when I get on it. I have replaced the fuel filter and pump. Neither of which fixed the problem. Could there be an internal problem with the carb? It is a stock 305 with a Rochester carb. Hope this is enough info.

It's probably time for a carb rebuild. The quadrajet was a good carb, but there are a few things wrong with it. But nothing that can't be fixed. Your accelerator pump in the carb is probably shot or on it's way.
