As of late, my 65 has started bucking on hard acceleration.
Almost as if it had a governor on it. It will do it and then the next time it accelerates smooth and fast. Any ideas?

Of the number of issues that could be causing this condition, I would first check the fuel pump first, then the carburetor bowls, for debris?
