This happens to me too. I hit the gas and it feels like my engine get bogged down - only happens sometimes. I just have to lift my foot of the gas then push it down again, and voila it starts going.
I think it has something to do with the throttle positon sensor, or something else air related. Once I get a proper intake without unmeasured air I can do some better tests....

That would be correct. Carb cleaner leaves behind a oil residue..
Brake cleaner on the other hand leaves nothing, and we have used to clean a great deal of connections and devies.
Bog and Surge, when was the last time the fuel filter was replaced?
