OK -Do you have any repair experience? Do you have tools? Do you have a vacuum gauge? If you do what does it read at idle? I do not think a 1980 is a lean burn but to be sure do you have a photo of the engine? We can give some advice after these question. I assume that you checked all the vacuum lines coming from the carb. Have you done a tune up?

i had a similar problem with an 81. still do sorta, but the biggest difference for me was replacing the fuel lines under the hood. mine were dry rotted and sucking a lot of air.
