When I try to start the cub cold it acts like it is only hitting on one cylinder and is all but flooded (gas will be dripping from the carburetor) when it does finally start, and miss for a while then run fine. When I try to start it warm, if it does start it misses for a few seconds then seems to run fine. After the problem started I have installed a needle and seat. new spark plugs and cheaked the points in the magneto

Did you set the float when you installed the needle and seat.My Cub was doing that when I first got it,and thats all it was.

Yes, I checked the float setting acording to the ITT book and it measured 1-13/32

I had a little Tecumseh lawn mower engine do something like that, amazingly it was a badly carboned head, and dirty valves.

It would turn over quickly, and almost not catch, then it would catch, and run rich for a bit, smelled alot like gas, then it would run ok. Hot or cold.

Id make sure it isnt something else first, but it sounds like a badly carboned head to me, or bad plug wires.
