72 Super Beetle doesnt idle right

Another question from a visitor:

I have a 72 super and it will idle fine for a few minutes then it sputters and eventually dies.
if i keep my foot barely on the gas pedal it stays running.
i’m at a loss as to what the problem is.
i think 72 was a bad year for VW. lol
let me know if you guys figure something out.
