Check your plugs and see if they are all burning evenly. If ya find some that are really black (rich) might have a inj prob or compression prob. Check your cap wires n rotor make sure they good and not shorting out. Corrosion bad. Also check for vac leaks. Broken lines or worn out vac line will cause rough idle. Make sure your not having an intake leak. Take some carb spray and spray around anything that could draw vac. If the engine revs when ya spray it on a certain place its a leak. Just some ideas
