1969 Volkswagen Beetle 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

I can't get the engine to idle. I rebuilt the carb and change the plugs. Any suggestions?

It's probably still something not right with the carburetor. I'd check setting of idle air screw and proper operation of the idle shutoff valve, choke and idle cam, needle valve in float chamber.
