The engine idles inconsistently, sometimes "racing" while at idle.

That is frequently due to an intake leak between the carb and the head. While idiling spray carb cleaner or starter fluid on it. If the idle changes that's the problem. Usually a cheap and easy fix, depending on how hard it is to get to the carb.
