Main jet in carb could be crudded up. That's the one that is hard to get out without a slim deep socket, although sometimes needlenose vice grips will work. If you go there, make sure all its orifices are clean. But before you remove carb, check to see if when you hit the bump you didn't knock something else loose, like a plug wire, etc. In other words, make sure choking, i.e., adding more gas, isn't hiding an electrical problem. If your amp meter reading changed at the same time, that makes me even more suspicious of a wiring problem. Of course, too much air, like from a manifold leak, will make it necessary to add more gas, e.g., by choking, but from what you said, i'm betting that's not it unless whatever you hit broke the manifold.
