Just because parts are new Paul don't discount them as a potential source of the problem. I presume you made sure what type of plug cap/plug for instance the Boyer system prefers to be installed with. Your problem does sound carb related but sometimes the solution lies elsewhere and you lose loads of time and effort focusing on the wrong part just because your convinced it must be there.
Stripped carbs yesterday and blockages in the idle circuit in cabs 1 and 2. Also looked like a small restriction in pilot jet 2. Blew all through a few times with carb cleaner etc and all seem ok but guess I will only know when I get it all back together again.No idea what causes this as they were fine before but I guess it only takes a small particle.Anyway carbs back together and took the opportunity to helicoil all the float bowl screw threads.
Interested to know what particals were found, would you describe them as clear/grey looking with a slight crystalline feel to them, ie a bit gritty? That's what I generally see on small jets and passages of things I'm cleaning to get them running correctly.
As to why it has got partially blocked from being clean initially, I've some thoughts on that which I'll put into another thread.It'll be interesting to see how it performs after your reassembly.

seems to be very common with 627B carb sets

The issues on the two 'failed' sets was corrosion of the casting where the main jets fit being eaten away. I did think of somehow sleeving it in brass ... maybe someone has done similar or has suggestions ... seems to be very common with 627B carb sets
