83 lg4 weird idle

After the motor is warm it will idle around 7/800 rpm. I can rev it a little and it settles back down. If I rev it to 4000 rpm it will come back down to 1100rpm and go up and down from 1100 to 1300. Any ideas? I have been battling this car for two years. All stock CCC quadrajet. I have a video, how do I upload?

Hey, not sure if I can be of any help with the carb, but if you have a YouTube account, just upload the video there and post the link. Just make sure you don't set the video to private, or nobody will be able to see it. Hopefully that will at least help you to get the your video up to where the right set of eyes can watch it and maybe get you some answers.
