only runs when choked

Yeah i gave up on the weber, so put the nikki back on. i had it runnin pretty decent befor putting on the weber (after the purchase of the weber) and when I got the weber just slapped it on, so now im back to the nikki. the car wont idle very well without the choke on. It idles between 1250 and 1500 with the choke and itll idle (lopingly) at about 1000 without the choke, but if i give it gas it dies.
It also sounds like its popping (backfires?) very quietly at idle (reminds me kindof like a deisel). its just not right,


any advice or what to check would be appreciated

Dustin
