Sounds like a few things going on there. Float level for starters and vacuum leaks I'd look at next. I'd check for varnish in the bottom idle jet as well. Vacuum leaks are the biggest issues for old engines. Have you had the carb off or manifold recently? Hope this gives you a starting point.

To go along with what Duane said I would hook up a vacuum gauge and see what kind of readings you see. I can send you a chart if you furnish an e-mail address if you need one. J.

Thanks for the advice where do I hook up the vaccum gauge to to find out what it should be
