Check the dwell. If the dwell is not correct the engine will not idle correctly or may not idle at all. I presumes you replaced the burned points?
Step 1: Be sure the dwell and timing are correct.
Step 2: Adjust carburetor idle speed and mixture until the idle is as good as you can get it. Each engine is a bit different. You need to adjust for your engines optimal performance.
