!.8 engine bogging down when hot and accelerating

[SteelerMike77]

Hi all,
Just wondering - any thoughts about why my 1.8, twin carbs, 1974, 914 after warming up the engine will lose power during acceleration, sputter, and cough! I did notice the oil temp was pretty high - not all the way up. Once the car sits little its fine! I am changing oil this weekend, any other ideas???
Thanks

In order:
- Ignition timing
- Spark quality
- Vacuum leaks
- Valve clearances
- Carb adjustments
