Couple of things to look at.

When idling, check to see if you are getting at least 14.5 to 15 vds when measured across the battery posts using a volt meter.

Check fuel flow from fuel pump by remove inlet line to carb, place in plastic container and see if you get at least a pint of fuel in less than 30 seconds. If you don't, it could be bad fuel pump or restricted fuel lines.
Volts are 14.7. Will mess with fuel pump today.
