From experience fixing stuff on my type 3... check the fuel pump on the carbie(s) and your vacuum advance, if you have one.

Sorry i meant accelerator pump... i had the same problem with my car and it turned out to be that the accelerator pump wasn't pumping in enough fuel...

Had a similar problem recently, it turned out to be a vacuum leak.
