How long since a tune-up? I'd want to look at the 02 sensor signal. To see if it is showing lean? If it is lean, try to richen the the system, see if idle smooths out and if the 02 sensor signal changes.

Check the gasket below the TBI unit they will blow and cause a vacuum leak, giving a lean condition. Also will run poorly.
