What is your opinion/experience when using a carb without a working pump. What would you expect engine performance to be, other than acceleration provided by pump ?

With a single carb having no accelerator pump there will be a huge off idol stumble making it near impossible to drive the vehicle. Any attempt to try and gain acceleration without the pump enrichment will be meet by a much bigger stumble.
