I had a carb that liked to drop the main jet in the carb bowl. Ran fine up to 3/4 throttle, but when it was pinned, sputtered terribly. The needle controls most of the fuel delivery off-idle up to 3/4 throttle. If you had no main jets, I'd guess the previous owner took off the carbs he was running and had those carbs lying around, and put them on there. I've got a few sets of carbs that I've robbed a jet or 2 out of without remembering.

Re-reading your post, I bet the previous owner had a 35mm carb on there, and threw the 32mm on when he sold it. You don't see many 32 mm 2 into 1 setups (or any 32 mm carbs for that matter), I don't think. The carb is probably not even close to being jetted correctly for your motor...

Idle screw, air mixture screw, and pilot jet is the only thing that should affect idle. One or all of those could be wrong for your motor. I have no idea where you would start with the jetting with the 32 mm 2 into 1, sorry.
