OK so today I started with a fresh mind. I removed the carb and went through it with a fine tooth comb with the carb cleaner = spotless.
Bolted it all back up, same damn thing, not running on all cylinders.
My uncle came out to help and after much, much stuffing around (including putting in a brand new coil, different plugs, etc) we removed #3 spark plug lead and it ran exactly the same = something wrong with #3.
Came to the conclusion that the #3 exhaust valve wasn't seating properly so ripped the head off and the valve seats are terrible.
I'm not too impressed with the machine shops definition of re-seating the valves.

So I'm off to get some paste and grind them all in again...
