Maybe the problem wasn't with the carb.

I've used about a half dozen Chingchong carbs and
the only problem I ever had was some dirt in the float
needle seat and I don't think it was the carb's fault.
I bought the tractor recently and the carb was a lump of unsalvageable rust. The china carb was cheap and I though too simple technology for even them to screw it up. It could be just adjustment, as u said debris, or whatever. But i wanted to throw it out here in case these are all problem carbs or what... sounds like so far, the consensus is that they are not necessarily bad ...

I'll take it off and blow out the passages etc...
