I've seen several DeLorean's do this (my own included) and the solution was one of these two:
- Clogged CPR screen
- Mixture mildly too lean, which was my problem
Make sure the hose inlet screen is clean in the CPR (it's easy to clean up), and fix any vacuum leaks that may be causing your mixture to lean out. Finally, double check the mixture screw with an exhaust gas analyzer, and don't forget to plug the adjustment screw hole.
I should note, in all the cases I mention the car only ran rough when cold for a few seconds, up to maybe 2 minutes, only during acceleration.
