Sounds like it is time to tune the accelerator pump squirters. What size discharge nozzles do you have?

Try unhooking the secondaries of the carb, then tune the front first. It's easier to dial one side at a time. You can bog from being too rich too.

Also, does your car have two idle mixture screws or 4? How do you have your idle mixture screws set? What process did you use to set them?

Woh, 1.5 is a starting point for 2 corner. I'm usually 1-1.25. 4 corner I'm isually .5 to 3/4 on all 4.

A vacuum guage would help tune your idle. if you have to close the rear two screws and just use the front, 1.25 turns out on a 2 screw should be close
