I see, well hopefully you are enjoying retirement! Any help or thoughts you have would be appreciated, I"ve never had this much trouble and am at a loss at this point.
Yes the idle metering jet was broken off. I drilled out what was left of it, chased the threads and installed a new one.
Yes fuel inlet screen was removed and cleaned...entire carb was disassembled and cleaned when I rebuilt.
As best I can tell, the float has free travel and is not binding or rubbing on anything. I did have trouble with the needle sticking (rubber tipped as that is all I can fins). 3rd one I tried finally seemed to work.
The venturi was a little beat up, looks like its been dropped a few times before. Anyway tractor runs a little rough at idle, slightly better with idle adjusting screw all the way in.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
