What NHTSA recorded

When the accelerator pedal on the involved vehicles is depressed and the accelerator pump is activated, a distorted accelerator pump seal in the carburetor may prevent the pump from delivering the proper amount of fuel.

Remedy

Dealer will replace the carburetor accelerator pump seal with a seal of improved distortion resistance. The carburetor will also be checked for the proper float level.
