I pulled the top off the carb last month and it looked good and clean inside.

I've experienced the same. Truck and mustang have sat for months at a time as well. I use almost all steel lines, only using rubber where needed. I recently took apart my edelbrock carb that's been on the truck since 2002, and aside from needing some new seals and having a little bit of silt in it, it looked new inside still.
I also use it in my lawnmower which seems OK with it, it's 9 years old now.
My problems have been with small engines too. It ate the tiny plastic fuel line in my chainsaw and it kept eating the fuel line in my weedeater. I now spend the extra $0.50 per gallon for non ethanol for my weedeater and pressure washer, which is a PIA because I have 3 gas cans now - E10 for mower, Non E10 for pressure washer, and non E10 with oil mix for weedeater.
