An alternative thing to consider.

If you have the fuel purge system that draws off vapour from the fuel tank and chucks it through the charcoal filter and then into the inlet manifold you might find that excess fuel is reaching the system via this route.

Chapter 47 - 200 says to disconnect this system from the inlet manifold when performing tasks such as setting idle speed.

If this makes a difference then it might be time to replace the charcoal filter as well...
