Mower cuts out and quits?

My mower (craftsman 18.5 HP 42" Model # 917.273634) starts and will run while choked, but as soon as I move the lever off choke, it cuts out and quits. We have cleaned or replaced all filters (fuel, air) and the cylinoid (sp?) The carburetor has also been cleaned.

either the fuel mixture screw needs to be adjusted or you could need to have the card rebuilt.
