first, welcome aboard

second, be very specific. what did you do for a tune up?

for the points, what was your dwell? what did you set timing to?

It was running correctly before the tune up?

And it's idling smooth now?

what did your dwell come out to after filing the points and re-gapping to 0.018" should be about 30-32 degrees

if you didnt verify the dwell, it will idle great and fall on its face as you open the throttle.
