Check For vac leaks on you manifold and carb, and try cleaning the carb could be gummed up.

the vacuum diaphragm on the carb is probably worn out. I would recommend tying together the linkages to convert to manual secondaries. It's a lot easier than it sounds. here's a link https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showpo...6&postcount=11
