Default 86 lude idle and running problems

Im a nooby so have mercy! i have a 86 lude and when i turn it on it runs rough then smooths out then rough and so forth! when i accelerate it wants 2 shut off then it bogs! I've changed; the spark plugs, wires,rotor cap, battery, alternator and water pump! not sure what 2 check for! could it be a vaccum hose? i only payed $380 for the car and with gas prices i nwould really like it running right! If any one could help me out there i would greatly appreciate it! THANKS! I forgot to mention that it's a single carburated dual side setup! could it be they can be somewhat dirty?

Try replacing the PCV Valve. My 87 accord had a similiar problem and that fixed it and since it is cheap it is a easy place to start.

i was gonna say replace the Throttle Position Sensor but you said its carb'd.. hmm.. could be a dirty carb or the pcv valve.. try cleaning the carb with Carb Cleaner.. check all your vac hoses and lines and keep us posted
