Good engine overall if taken care of. As for the idling, start off by checking the link and sync on the carbs and timing. What is the compression on it? Should be around 140-145 if it is healthy, but anything above about 125 is acceptable. What is it idling at in gear and in neutral? You want to set it to idle at about 700 in neutral, and she should be able to hold about a 600 idle in gear without stalling. Does it still have VRO hooked up? Does it smoke alot at idle? These engines will give many years of trouble free service, but if somebody works on the carbs in it and don't know how to do plastic carbs, it will be a NIGHTMARE engine for you.
