..I also installed a $5 fuel shutoff about 3" from the carb inlet, so that hopefully it never sits wet again. Shut down the gennie after about 60 seconds of closing the valve....

You ended up on the same path I took with an ONAN carb. I made several cleaning attempts and couldn't clear it up. Took it to a shop. You paid about half what I did, but I was as grateful as you are, and it took an ultrasonic cleaner to get it done. They called it a "rebuild" but that was years ago, when there were still some kits available. I could tell right away that the carb was better, but there was still a slight surge. Several steps down in the surge troubleshooting was "replace governor spring" and I decided to jump to that for $3 without all the other steps first. It did the trick.
GLAD you're enjoying a nice-running genny!
