i have a similar problem with my 2TG, im runnin twin solexs and when i dump it it struggles abit and then takes off, but it isnt always that, i sometimes put my foot down real slow as if i was feeding it in, and the carbs just bog down heaps and then my engine dies altogether, does the same when i flat foot it.. i know that it is a fuel problem, not getting fuel fast enough into the carbs to fill them up.. bare in mind my solexs havnt been used for about 4years..

mine also does the exact same when trying to start cold idles like a bitch and when running normal temp sits on 1500.. again fuel problem, well for me it has been..

im not sure of anyway to really cure this, apart from mucking around with your distributor, loosen the bolt that holds the distributor in the block and while your car is idling, turn it counter clockwise first slightly and then pump your accelerator afew times, you may notice and improvement in throttle response, if not turn the dizzy the other way and soforth, its abit of mucking around but once you find the spot it stays like that for ages.. although im pretty sure most or all carbs have a Flat spot, even if its just a little bit.

hope that helps..
