Leo,
Sounds like a sticky carb float or needle.
I had the same symptoms with my 71. (Recently rebuilt carbs). The
problem was intermittent. I cleaned up the floats and needles and it
ran fine for a while. The problem returned after a short while and I
discovered that the fuel line was degrading from the inside, (it was
new NAPA fuel line). I found a lot of black goo in the float bowls.
