well i think you need to provide us with a little more information. You should read through the surging idle checklist and go through EVERY step. This will help you diagnose your problem instead of guessing at it.

See "Surging Idle Checklist for help with all your idle/stall problems. The first two posts contain all the updates to the fixes. I continue to update it as more people post fixes or ask questions.

Verify your timing is correct by bringing #1 cylinder to TDC then remove the dizzy cap and see if the rotor is pointing to the number 1 spark plug wire.

low fuel pressure will cause one to pop and spit as well....check vacuum line to regulator and fuel pressure...pump could be going bad or filter could be stopped up
