1986 Toyota Corolla 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

My vehicle has a constant problem regarding I think is a fuel starvation problem. Only while driving, not idiling, it sometimes feels like it is being starved and pulls negatively. I have cleaned my fuel tank out. Cleaned the fuellines and injectors, changed filters, serviced my carburator. Basically every possible item I could think of was either serviced replaced and or cleaned. I still suffer form this. It has new poins spark plugs, Bougi cords, etc in as well. Please can someone assist in helping me sorting this out.

Kind Regards

Okay -adjust the point gap and then the ignition timing-both okay check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter and fuel pump. Also check if the clutch is slipping, get back with some results.
