My two cents for what it is worth. Terry Teer had this problem and after spending weeks of trying this and that it ended up being a vapor lock in the fuel line. This hic-up only happened during taxi and you could set your clock by it. It would occur approximately 2 minutes after beginning taxi. With the engine at higher rpms it would not occur as the fuel was flowing fast enough to not vaporize. We corrected it by placing a blast tube to cool the gasgolator. It has not occured since.
