GT cuts out when I give it a lot of gas, but not when I accelerate smoothly. Why? 200

I had the exact same problem with an '82 GL. I mean EXACTLY. And it didn't do it when I bought the car but only after I did the "Seafoam" treatment on it (trickling it into the intake while reving the engine). I have always blamed the Seafoam for screwing it up, but I never had any idea what was wrong. I took apart the entire intake and cleaned it and it helped a tiny bit, but I gave the car to a friend without ever completely solving the problem.
