Did you do any of the things suggested in this thread?

Specifically "Check the timing with a timing light"? I don't see where you mentioned that you did that. Replacing random parts hoping to fix the issue is not smart and very expensive.

why don't you adjust and turn your idle screw up on the T/B.
