Need more info.

On a cold start do you have fast idle?

Is the choke hot-air or electric?

When you move the throttle on a cold engine does the choke flap snap shut and does the fast idle cam raise to the highest position?

When you say "rebuilt" did someone rebuild the original carb or is it commercially "remanufactured"? 

What is the carburetor part number?
