Since you said the gauges jiggled a little and the tendency of the motor to want to stall out, I'm going way out on a limb here to suggest that it is an electrical ground problem, not a carb problem.

Clean all the paint and grime off a place on the firewall where you can drill a hole and get to it from the inside of the car. Clean a place on the engine block and on the frame of the car just the same way, down to shiny, clean metal. Count up what length of cable it will take to span from the firewall to the block to the frame. What I usually do is to make 2 cables. One end of cable #1 goes to the firewall, where you run a bolt and nut through the cable end and tighten it down. The other end of cable #1 goes to the frame. One end of cable #2 also secures to the frame. The other end of cable #2 goes to the engine block. Now, you have tied the body to the frame to the motor. Use RTV to cover the connections front and rear to prevent moisture from oxidizing the connections.

What I usually use for the cables is #4 welding cable from the welding supply store. They have copper ends also to crimp onto the cable. In addition to crimping, I solder the ends on and install heat shrink sleeves.
