You may want to try spraying some carb cleaner into the Brass Air Bleeds (2 for each venturi). One of them could be clogged (hi speed).
They can become clogged with varnish and prevent fuel being pulled during transition from idle to main circuit, or make it run exceedingly rich because it is blocked. I would also consider replacing the aluminum or chromed plastic wire seperators that are in the pictures in your gallery. They form a perfect path for crossfire.
