Any ideas [looking at changing the jetting next] Carby fed by engine driven pump and electric pump.

If the airbleed then you would be looking at turning out the idle mixture screw a bit more than 1/4 to 1 turn. More like 1.5 to 2 turns. If it is the jet in the float bowl, it shouldn't have made any difference to the mixture unless the choke is activated for starting. It sounds like you should have eliminated any induction leaks, although a spray at all the joints with WD40 while the engine is idling will tell you if there is still a leak. Make sure that the idle speed of 800 rpm is with the throttle physically pulled all the way.
