Clean the carb and make sure none of the linkage is bent or no connected.Also make sure that the linkage is hooked up and is moving freely.Check for vacuum leaks with carb cleaner...if rpm changes significantly you have a vacuum leak.

Also make sure choke is opening fully. If not it will lock out the secondary linkage.
