To the best of my knowledge from the symtoms described it looks like you have
a fuel starvation problem. Have you the Lucas pump fitted still? First check
the fuel line pressure---this should read between 100 and 110 psi not only on
idle but wherever you have the throttle, this should be constant! Secondly
check the state of your fuel tank , it is common to have rust especially on
the tank floor and this can be quickly checked by shining a torch light down
thro' the fuel cap and visually inspect your tank---if you can see rust
particles this is not good.
Thirdly check the fuel filter for dirt of any kind, could be a blockage of
some kind in there, best to replace this anyway as a matter of course. Next
check the fuel pump strainer filters, disconnect the fed pipe to the pump
and remove filter in view and inspect---do the same with the exit pipe to
make sure.
Lastly make sure the strainers are clean in your injectors.
As I have said I'm confident that your problem stems from a constriction in
your supply somewhere, go out and find it and good luck!
Let me know what you find--- a problem shared is a problem halved.
