Hmmm. I do know that when I shut the fuel levers on both my model A and my G they pick up rpms when they lean out right before they run out of gas. An engine that needs choke is usually because there's either a vacuum leak or a lack of fuel. If it wasn't for the high idle issue I'd guess that there was a clogged fuel passage in the carb but that intermittent high idle makes me think its a fuel delivery issue. How's the screen in the sediment bowl? When you pull the fuel line and turn on the fuel does it run pretty good? If so it probably is the float setting. I shove a piece of small clear weed eater/chainsaw gas line into the drain cock and run it up alongside the bowl to check the actual fuel level. If that's not it a fuel cap that isn't venting could also be suspect.
