Hi Carl,

Try gapping your points at .012. I have had similar problems with just 
off idle acceleration.  If the miss fire happens all through the rpm 
range then it's another ignition part. Start at the beginning, work from 
the plugs back. If it happens at idle then pull each plug wire and see 
if the absence of one makes no change. If the idle changes with each 
elimination then keep working your way back. Some times these problems 
are annoying & hard to get easily.
You also don't make it clear whether it's a miss fire, or a idle 
stumble. To me a miss fire is more abrupt & a stumble is just a rough idle.
Good luck & keep us posted.
