Run a compression check and make sure the compression is even across all cylinders. If that's ok, probably a simple tune-up will solve your problem. Most of the time, this is ignition timing.

How do you adjust the carburetor on a 1971 vw bus?

To adjust the carburetor on a 1971 VW Bus, start by ensuring the engine is warm and idling. Use a screwdriver to adjust the idle mixture screw until the engine runs smoothly, typically by turning it in until the engine starts to stumble, then out until it runs best. Next, adjust the idle speed screw to set the RPM to the recommended level, usually around 850 RPM. Finally, double-check both adjustments to ensure optimal performance and smooth idling.
