Valve lash is a common issue with those. Pull the valve cover, turn the engine by hand till each of the rocker/followers comes off the cam. Should just barely have movement in the rockers as they come off cam. Quick method is to loosen the jam nut, tighten the adjustment screw till it just touches, then back off 1/4 turn, hold it steady as you retighten the jam nut. Repeat for all 4 valves, being sure to turn the engine by hand to keep each follower off cam for the adjustment.

you can clean most carbs fairly easily and check compression with compression tester if you don't have one you can rent one from autozone I recently had one that would not run and had gas and fire when I removed the valve cover I discovered it had a broken rocker arm stud
