Completed rebuild on 1974 914 2.0 L. All fuel and vacuum lines are also new. Engine idle varies between 1000 and 2000 rpm every few seconds what could cause this?

I would go with a leak like brant described if it were not fluctuating, the op still hasn't cleared up the interval and whether it is hunting or just random. If it's just "I came to a stop and this time it's at 2k" or if it is bouncing between 1k and 2k. Maybe I missed that post.
