cat teir 1

I have a cat teir1 that has kicked a few butts around here.
runs like a champ has 160psi +- 15.Has had vaporizer carb governor plugs wires cap rotor ecu trim valve fuel lock
all changed because it hiccup's during acceleration every now and then.Runs for 45 min then it happens runs 10min then again.Sprayed brakeleen around looking for vac leaks none found.Now if you take the hose to the breather tube lose it'll run like a champ.Has been plugged in and all settings close to normal.All parts from this truck are on a separate truck and it runs fine.Besides burning it to the ground any clues?
