Re: sputtering
Check your dashpots for proper function and/or adjustment.
What year Toros?
How do the carbs perform when you aren't slowing down? Any flat spots? Bogs? Are the symptoms identical in both cars?

Re: sputtering
2 questions:
Are you using premium fuel without ethanol?
Do these cars often sit with ethanol fuel in them?
