 Not sure if this is the same setup as my Pacer carb, but there's TWO idle 
screw settings on the linkage on mine...one is the fast-idle ( choke ), the 
other is the off-choke idle. You can adjust them independently, so the 
off-choke setting could be too low, and needs to be brought up a half-turn ( 
the screws and step-cams do wear over time, changing the settings some ), if 
there's no other problem with the car. Obviously check for bad vac hoses, 
partially disconnected, etc. KISS principle applies ( Keep It Simple, Stupid! 
), so look for obvious problems first before tinkering with the carb 
settings! Good luck!
