How come your 1982 Chevy s10 cuts out when you step on the gas?
Its probably the accelerator pump in your carburetor.
What is wrong with this 1985 celebrity 2.8 V6 2 barrel It starts and idles fine but when put into gear and press on the gas pedal it feels like you're running out of gas but once above 45 MPH its ok?
I would first look at the accelerator pump in the carburettor. The accelerator pump puts a short burst of raw gas into the air stream. This gives an enriched air flow into the engine causing acceleration. To check the accelerator pump: With the engine off remove the air filter and hold the choke valve open (if it is closed). Then move the accelerator linkage to open the throttle valve and you should be able to see a spray of raw gas into the venturi. If there is no spray then you need to make sure the linkage is working correctly. If the linkage is pushing the accelerator pump down and there is no spray you may consider replacing the accelerator pump.
What will cause a Chevy 350 V8 engine to cut off when the accelerator is pressed?

Why does engine back fire through carburetor when you step on pedl hard?
Your engine needs more gas to accelerate. Either your accelerator pump is worn out or it needs to be adjusted. Could also be timing. But more likely the accelerator pump. Look down inside the carburetor to make sure you're getting a good healthy squirt of fuel when you pump the gas. Make sure the car isn't running when you do this.
