Please post the engines model numbers, so we know which Briggs you have. Does it have a fuel pump?

When running my Intek fuel filter is never full.

The carb on this engine is one of the more difficult ones to clean and get adjusted properly. Fuel filters are not always full for the engine to run properly. You state that the engine seems to be running rich and only runs poorly under idle conditions. That being the case, in my opinion I feel that you are going to need an experienced mechanic take a look at the unit. Here is a manual which may help you understand my reasoning.
