Answer
If you removed the carburetor from a vehicle that hasn't been running for a while, it might need to be rebuilt. There could be trash in the idle circuit, a vacuum leak from a dried up gasket, float level misadjusted. Actually, many things could cause it not to idle. I would have someone who knew what they were doing rebuild it and make all the necessary adjustments. Any aftermarket air filter that fits a Holley 4 barrel will work.
