Default 12a guru needed!

I got an 85' gsl from a fellow member on TR for a good price. Nice body, good interior just needs some attention twoards the motor. When I got it, it would not idle, just stall. I removed the air cleaner and on closer inspection I noticed the line for the idle componsator was broke at the "T". I plugged it up and it will now idle at 600rpms with sometimes it will go down to like 300 but not often. It is EXTREMELY SLOW, I know there is something wrong somewhere, it doesn't want to rev above 4k when I'm driving down the street. I checked the accelerator pump and it squirts a nice steady stream. It's doesn't cut out so I have not check any of the ignition yet. Could the secs on my carb be clogged or messed up, or could some hidden vac leaks do this? I just need a point in the direction cause this carb'd 12a is wayyy different than my 13bt.

thanks,
