12a Compression and idle issues

I finaly got around to doing a correct compression test, so im going to start a new thread instead of reviving my old one. The front rotor was about 80, and rear was 90. I have videos and pictures and will add them soon. Maybe I can just get away with a carburetor rebuild while I wait to move to somewhere with garage space to start a rebuild? Or anything else keeping it from idling under 2800 RPM. The fuel lines seem pretty rusted, not sure if that or fuel delivery would effect that. Also anything vacuum wise I should look into?
