    check your idle mixture screws. How many on that carb? Close one at a time and count the # of turns and then re-open. They should be the same, if they are not they may need adjustment. Check the timing too.

    Check for vacuum leaks while your at it. You said plugs look fine but did you check all of them or just a couple?
