1987 toyota p.u. 22r carburator will not idle.

Well here goes hope you can help.I have 87 toyota p.u. with 22r that will
not idle.I let the truck sit for two years because the manual clutch was
out and had oil leaks.The truck ran perfect when I parked it.I finally got
around to pulling the engine and fixing the cluch and all the oil
leaks.After I got it back together, it will not idle.I got all the old gas
out and put fresh in.I rebuild the carburator and still the same result.The
only things that were not replaced is the idle stop solenoid and another
solenoid beside of it.I can put a rag over the carburator and it will
idle.I know that this is an indication of a vaccum leak but after spraying
heavily around the intake with carb. spray i can not find one.I have
checked power and grounds to the idle solenoid and are good.I have already
spent 50.00 dollars on the carb. and was wondering(before spending anymore)
if that idle solenoid could be my problem or not.I hope there is a toyota
specialist around.

When you rebuilt the carburetor, did you clean or replace the jets? Did you
clean all the varnish out?

Did you check all of the vacuum lines and connections for a vacuum leak or
just around the intake?

You can confirm or eliminate a vacuum leak as the cause by using a vacuum
gauge.
