prob with choke , carb...?

Ok every morning I start my 12a. It idles fine with choke about 5 min. later it sounds like it running on one rotor? When I blip the throttle it seems to fix itself. Dunno what the prob is...

This morning I started her up and she had a lumpy idle. I blipped the throttle a couple times and she idled steady. She drove fine all the way to work but at a stop light she idled lumpy again. The car has no loss of power. What can it be? She idles like this with choke pulled out when warming up and sometimes while waiting at a traffic light. Sometimes it fixes itself.

Could be a vacuum leak. How are the plugs? Has it had a recent tune up?

My car did the same thing when I installed DLIDFIS. I had the wires from my ignitors to the magnetic pick up switched and made my leading ignition really retarted
