1st thing I'd check is whether the choke is coming off. Very often the choke power wire is left disconnected or comes off, so the choke stays partially on. This raises the idle.

Did you reinstall the carb, or did the person that did the rebuild install it? If the latter, take it back to them and get them to get it right.
