Default idle issues

Okay, so i am having trouble with my idle still. I posted a month or so ago and used a technique someone said to try which involved cleaning out the carburetor and that helped a little bit. It is still rough and im not sure what is wrong, it is at around 600-700 and every once in a while will drop down to close to 500. Once warmed up is when this occurs which makes sense and it gets way worse when the A/C is on and i am sitting at a light. I just noticed this but the guy i bought the car from put a smaller battery in the car, it is still 12V but would that cause the idle to be too low or for the car to feel like it is about to die when i used the air conditioning or the windows? I have been struggling with this and i just wanna get it over with, if you can help please do, Thanks for reading
