 This only happens with the motor turning between 1500 and 2500rpm and only 
 in conjunction with letting out the clutch from a dead stop.  It sticks for 
 a couple of seconds and then unsticks rapidly.  It never sticks with the 
 engine/motor/powerplant turned off, and never with motor running and the 
 tranny in neutral and/or the clutch pushed in.  I've gone over the entire 
 throttle linkage from pedal to carbs and can't seem to find anything that is 
 sticking or hanging up.  I am confused and frustrated.  Any suggestions? >>

The conditions you describe seem to be high torque in nature. Have you 
checked your motor and trans mounts? If you didn't check under the described 
circumstances this could be the cause of your efforts proving fruitless.
