The Ford Barn

Hi, I’ve looked through a good amount of info here on the Ford Barn, also have looked at a website for Zenith carb issues. My question is if I have replaced all the innards with a kit from Snyder’s and have used carb cleaner, it seems more than likely that I would not have any debris or dirt to cause the engine to stall when coming to a stop. I purchased this carb from Snyder’s 8 years ago and have replaced parts many times but I still have to run it rich by way of keeping the gav open day 3/4 turn. I had so much carbon build up it caused the engine to knock. Thanks for any help, just when I start to think I know what I’m doing I get a quick reality check. Thanks again
