DELETED (Struggle)

I got this auger from a guy that couldn't get it to run correctly. I know there are a lot of guys around here from up north that might be familiar with this model.
Vac test passed after I fixed a leak at the carb flange.
All I can get it to do is idle. Beyond that it dies when full throttle is applied.
Back ground, new fuel tank and lines and new carb.
I have never been so frustrated with a 2-stroke as this one is now.
It doesn't respond to screw adjustments beyond stalling once low side is turned in. High side seems now different where I set it at.
I ride bottle feeding it and all it does is stall. I set the metering lever up and no change at all. I will set it back down now lower and see how that does.
I'm trying to help this guy out but all it is doing is leaving me frustrated at this point.
I tried a different carb off a saw that ran fine and the engine ran exactly the same way. Won't come off idle.
Does anyone know if the coil could be limiting it some how? Spark looks strong and I removed flywheel and everything there is lined up and normal.
If you give it fuel it just goes wahhhhhhwhile staying at idle.
