do compression test and see if you have good compression,if so you my have to tear it down.Mine acted like that when I had a wrist pin bearing go on it.Also you may have bent a valve and it stuck.

what year is it? if it has the carbon filter that breathes through the carb, pull apart the carb. I had the olds suck through a couple pieces of charcoal and plug the needles. It'd shake like a dog, not idle and wouldn't go over 45 mph no matter how flat my foot was on the floor.
