Could it be the vacuum pipe from the dizzy to the carb? Other than that I'd say its a coil issue?

Might be down to a few things. Check the level of damping oil in the carb dashpot. May well be the coil on the way out, although they normally either work or dont !!! Have you tried picking up the tickover revs by turning the tickover revs screw on the carb  |

Had the exact thing happen recently. Turned out to be a worn and sticking suction chamber and piston in the carb.

think it was a mixture tbh fiddled bout with the idle screw was running a bit lean aswell , so dun that redun the timming was out abit and also the vacum pipe thing from the servo wasnt sealing propberly when pushed tight she ran better so re-sealed that too
dunno if it would do anything but shes runngin much better now:)
the old mans re-conniing a card now so will replace the one on it now asit a lil tired
