I checked fuel bowl, tested mechanical pump, checked plugs and spark all part of my Spring tune up, even replaced all 15 gallons of fuel.

I have noted the similar forum idle comments but again, I did clear all passages in the carb. I've exhausted my limited knowledge.
Not trying to be smart but when you re-intalled the choke and choke cable are you certain (buy removing the flash arrestor and looking) that the choke is "on" when you think it is "on" and "off" when you believe it to be "off"?

It is pretty easy to confuse the setup.

Secondly, did you check/set the float angle during the carb rebuild?
