weird acceleration 120-130 1985

HI:

I have an '85 245 with jetronic 2.2 (according to Haynes), non turbo. It sat for 10 yrs and I just got it started. it idles fine but won't accelerate. when I hold the pedal down part way (not pumping), it revs in short spurts "rev-rev-rev-rev-". When I hold it down all the way it revs several times and dies. There are several esoteric control systems on it. Can any one offer a diagnosis?

thanks
Bill
