Check your air flow balance. If the carbs are not synched you can have that  
kind of problems. It sounds like the rear carb idle air flow might be too  low.

On the  not so good side, I couldn't get a decent idle. I think it is the rear
carb  as adjusting the
rear mixture nut seems to make little difference in how  the car runs. I can
get a steady but
rough idle on the front carb when  lifting the rear piston. But lifting the
front piston (in the carb)  kills
the engine no matter the setting of the rear mixture nut.
Both  throttle shafts seem in good shape with no noticeable play, spraying  
the
shafts
with carb cleaner while running has no  effect.
