If mixture setting is correct, it may still stumble depending how rapidly you push the throttle which activates an accelerator pump in the carb. It sounds like it may choke out but it never actually does.
Slightly slow the throttle knob movement and all will be well.

The plane was flying regularly, so there's no rust induced trauma...
