Air leak, blocked idle jet, or mixture is way out. If you still have the one way valve fitted to the breather check its working properly.

you said you re-built the engine so why would it not be breathers? Have you done a comp test since the re-build? double check that all pipes and wires etc... go to the right place and there are no splits.

Try the distrubutor gear ..the way its aligned ...person before who rebuilt the engine had it set wrong ...miller corrected mine ...he said "in the hayness manual theres two steps ...ppl do the first bit and forget to do the second bit".

Worth a try ;)
