Check to see if the idle solenoid is getting power. If it is, check to see if it clicks when it's energized.

Guess what? NO SOLENOID! Just a threaded hole where it should be. A wrecking yard near me just received a 79 Spider and they're selling me the entire carb assy for just $35, so I'm just going to replace the entire thing.

Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, we have decided to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. We apologize for any inconvenience.
