The only thing I wasn't sure of while rebuilding the carb was setting the choke plate gaps for the primary and secondary. I couldn't get both measurements at the same time. It's one or the other, or in my current case, in between.
Remind me again what Make/model of carb you have.
Most carbs have the secondary plate completely shut at idle - having it open even a little will cause a lean mixture at idle.
