Working on a 1974 2.0 d-jet

-symptom 1- when i start it... idle is very low no where near the 1600 rpm as Brad mentions
-symptom 2- low idle...like 550 rpm
-symptom 3- when coming to a stop it almost dies
-symptom 4- stomp on gas when sitting and driving it goes blah... then takes off.
-symptom 5- as it warms up loses a little power

things to note:
-there are 20 clicks when pushing down accelerator so tps is correct
-timing and dwell were checked today and they were within spec.
-lifters just adjusted
