I'm no expert, but it sounds like you've got air leaking in somewhere
downstream of the jet. Try squirting some heavy oil around linkage
bushings and manifold gaskets, that may momentarily seal the leak(s).
It should be pretty easy to spot a change if you have a colortune and a
friend to watch it while you hit each potential leak site in turn.
Are you sure you've got the right needle and jet installed? Have you
dropped in a performance cam? That'd require require some mixture
tweaks too.
