Noticed you said l 9/16 float setting. That is way
off. It should be 1 5/16. The float must lay
parallel to bowl surface. They are tricky to keep
from rubbing on sides of carb. New needle and
seats are often poorly made, however, the ones I
have been getting lately from CASEIH have been the
good looking ones and they work good. I have
coined many seats on the others over the years.
Because I worked on so many carburetors for so
many years I took an old carb bowl, cut the
bottom off and use that for a gauge for adjusting
the float. Did that after I had to run out to a
farmers place to reset a couple after working on
them. The idle mixture screw on an M is an air
bleed, not mixture like a lot of carburetors. So,
if you have to have it all the way in , limiting
the air at idle you are running lean. Low fuel
level, plugged passages, wrong idle jet. Good
luck.
