+ 1. Choke might also be stuck on at the carb end. I would also get a new idle screw.

Is the idle screw moving?

Choke stuck on?

Air leak? How's it run

If you, or someone else has turned the idle adjuster knob/cable too far anti-cockwise, the idle adjuster cable will become detached from the throttle body.
Also.....Choke cables can become frayed at either the carb end or the choke lever end which will cause the cable to jam.
