those tubes running to the black box are vacuum lines... check to make sure none of them are leaking. carb might also need to be cleaned out...

there's always the possibilty that the carb will need to be rebuilt. if you're mechanically inclined it won't cost too much, but if you have to take it to a shop expect to lighten your wallet by a few hundred bucks.
