Unhappy Need help for my 85, cuts out... anyone??

This 85 I just got for free cuts out on a relaxed, lets say, interstate drive, or in town when your not accelerating or decelerating. Runs kinda rough on idle also. I just got done replacing the cap, rotor, plugs, and wires. But it made a difference but its still running rough like I said above. Checked all my vacuum lines, there good, had to replace a few. Havent checked timing, or carb, not a carb man. The only thing I know to do about carbs is rebuild not troubleshoot or adjust. Got a small Chiltons manual but its focusing on the 83's and earlier. I am hoping that someone reads this and says, ya,, its this.. or just somewhere to start looking. The engine is only two years old but I dont know the history of this car, from what I can tell it was neglected and not takin care of. A typical city driver I guess. Put gas in and roll.
Thanks,
Chris.
