Get a different carb. sometimes swapping will tell you things. 590 carbs are everywhere. Check the impulse port. Somewhere between the impulse from the cylinder-impulse line-small diaphragm in the top of the carb-screen-check valve-large diaphragm-- you are not getting enough fuel. It's like a fuel pump in an old V8. Can you keep it running at idle by dripping or squirting fuel in the carb?
when it dies at idle, immediately take the spark plug out - wet or dry will tell you if it's not enough or too much fuel. good luck.
