I had the same problem with my TR3A engine  - rebuilt top end, rebuilt carbs
(strombergs)....still would not idle without choke, and even then very
rough. Turned out to be a leaking manifold gasket - replaced them with heavy
duty ones (form trf I think) and it immediately started idling smoothly!
Not sure how to check for this.....In my case, I was goung to replace them
anyway....
