Did you set the high speed screw at 1 1/2 turns out? Are you getting spark?

I'm going to step away from a fuel problem at the moment! You could have a bad condenser or it may be improperly installed. Also, be sure the timing is correct.

Idle is just that, putt putt putt = low speed. High Rpm is WFO= wide full open 3600 RPM governed speed. If your "tuning" attempt of the jets produced little or no changes when you adjusted them, you have carb issues. Did you clean the passages inside? did you remove the emulsion tube and clean the little holes inside it? Was it immersed in carb cleaner for a day or more and blown out with compressed air while dissembled? There is more to cleaning a carb, than a couple of squirts of carb cleaner from afar. Finally, Yes, a failed or failing Condenser can cause erratic full throttle stumbling/ missing/ erratic operation. They are inexpensive and easily replaced. Hope this helps!

IMHO some background of how the engine was running before the rebuild, and who did the engine rebuild, and who/how was reassembly done, would be helpful instead of dropping a handful of marbles on the floor and trying to decide which one to pick up first.
A picture of the governor/throttle connections wouldn't hurt either.

I'm assuming/guessing you are saying the carb is adjusted properly but you are still having "hunting" issues with the RPM'S at WFO.
You are short on descriptions/explanations so we have to guess/assume. If is is indeed still hunting/surging, you can try moving the spring that counteracts the governor to different holes in the linkage, it just might be a sensitivity issue. ( IIRR your engine does use a spring) but it's been a while since I've worked on a 124. In the Kohler service manual that you have been using, I'm thinking they have suggestions for hole settings for the spring, but again it's been a while, and it is always a suggestion as that is why they provide multiple holes for adjustment.

Is the flywheel upside down on the crankshaft? Is the plug wire tight on the sparkplug? Are the points closed when they should be open? Does the piston rattle in the cylinder? Did anyone ever tighten the head bolts? Is the distributor pointing to the number one cylinder? Can you see your house from Mt. Everest? Would you like another cup of coffee? Does youyr chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight? So many helpful questions, so few helpful answers.....sigh

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
