Idle jet or passage has some crap in it?  Maybe idle mixture screw is screwed all the way in?

No prob, I hope it's something simple like that.  The simple problems are usually the ones that give me the most trouble as I am always looking for some exotic strange fault!  I often need to be reminded to check the simple stuff...
