rough idle, bogging down

for the past week the maro has been idling low at about 500 rpms and very rough. today i found that the screws that keeps the carb cover on the carb were loose and gas was leaking out so i tightened them. now when i go to accelerate the car bogs at around 1100-1400 rpms.

could the carb just need to be tuned or could it be timing or vacuum?
it is a 2 barrel Rochester. any ideas would be appreciated, thanks
