Well, I'm suspecting the carb is simply jetted too lean then if everything else is checking out.
As you have several spare carbs, I'd remove the main jet from one to "open up".
E-Bay has jet drill bits for pretty cheap and you'll also need the handle end to hold the bit.
They ARE VERY SMALL and fragile. Once you have your new tools, slide the main jet over the bit
that fits best. Then, go up one or two sizes with the drill bits. Slow and steady and the drill will
open the jet...
Put the jet back in, re-assemble and see how the engine behaves.. It may need further drilling..
Please post back how it goes...
