Engine stalling when idling

The engine on my Nissan NX 100 stalls when idling ... usually when I pull up at traffic lights, road junctions, etc.

I've changed the air filter & cleaned the pilot jet.

What do you recommend?

Thanks for that , much appreciated... but may I ask where I locate the vac pipe?

You'll have to make allowances for my lack of motor car mechanics knowledge.

Thanks in anticipation

a thin pipe stinking out of a flat round bit on the side of the distributor(the thing where the plug leads come out).to the carb.
its attached with 3 other hoses and goes behind the carbeurator. Follow those hoses to a round thing and there is a little nozzle that is labeled manifold. Might even be green letters. Thats where the ****** goes. If you run the engine you can hear it hissing. really quick and easy fix. Nissan told me that I needed a new carb. hahaha
