weber tuning

I have an early 80s 22r with a weber 32/36 i tuned it acording to weber and i think it needs bigger jets and i bought a jet kit, when i mash the throttle it hesitates and then tachs out if i eas into it theres no hesitation. i dont know what jets are in it now. i if i go up in my primary idle should i go up in all my secondary jets too. i live on the oregon coast at see level any suggestions on jet sizes
