something else you might check would be any holes or tubes coming out of the intake or the carb, could have a vacum leak sucking air, if so u need to plug them, it willmake the car run better also.

I had a similar problem and i couldnt figure out what was wrong. So it took off my air filter and found there was a hole in the vacuum line running from the carb to the transmission. It made the car run terribly, and without the hose the car wouldnt run at all. You can find a replacement hose at any auto parts store as well as hose clamps
