I do know what your saying but I dont think it has to do with jets new carb and new jets and if their too big or small I have difrent sizes just trying to get a idea of what everyone thinks this might be before I RIP the carb apart agin.

Lean running. Check the carb/manifold boot. They wear flat in spots and leak, they're cheap enuf, just replace it if it's old. Check your vacuum lines. and or cap on the intake/carb vacuum nipples.
Check the manifold/head o-rings. Check the diaphragm in the top of the carb.
