Haven't tackled tht particular Honda engine yet. however, I had a GX160 that nearly drove me crazy doing the same thing. I eventually learned that the carburetor main orfice unscrews and above that there is a tube or nozzle which they call the emulsion tube. It has a series of tiny holes which require cleaning and the only thing i found small enough to go into them was a wire out of a wire brush. There are also some tiny holes in the idle system, which Honda refers to as a pilot jet. They are also tiny, and they were under a black plastic plug which was beside the idle mixture screw. There was even a tiny almost microscopic hole in the plastic plug which was stopped up. Took more than just soaaking, the best way to work on it I found was under a magnifier with a light. It ran fine after I finally got it all unstopped.
