Could be the idle cut-off valves on the carb - check they both have a black wire connected to the coil ( + or 15 terminal). With ignition on, pull one off and re-connect; you should get a click as the solenoid valve operates. Could also be the slow running jets blocked. Are the balance pipes attached properly (the 1/2" rubber tube jointing pieces sometimes get detached)? Dave.
