Nope, filters all good and I cleaned the airbox and vent holes as well

I've finished the clean and blow out of the carb, however when its still over oiling the plug. I have wound the air screw all the way out in order to lean it out, but still no joy

Funny you should say that, I'm just about to head to the shed with Dac's "how to clean your carb" guide, a big can of carb cleaner and lots of rags

Well, theres no need to worry about sustained running at high temp, as I cant even get running at any temp currently!! I've fitted the new battery and given the current spark plug a good scrubbing with a wire brush, but all I get is about two chugs out of the engine and no more, or two cylcles and t...

That'll be the bit I dont have then
I'll have to get onto my local dealers and websites to source me one.

What, you mean theres another way to fix problems? lol

I would also go for rethreading rather than trying to bodge together something that doesnt want to know you
