212 high idle and wont take throttle

it would't get any gas with the old carb i tried everything to make the old one work all jets were taken out and cleaned float was properly working gaskets were on right it at least starts now
 
Hi my 212 is acting up It ran perfect before I put the new carb on now it idles high and can take a little gas but when you give it more than 1/5 throttle it dies. I have tried adjusting the idle and the fuel screw both were no help all of the gaskets are good the throttle is not stuck at all. it runs like its on choke but that's all good too
Harbour freight has new ones now 100 bucks .
Flywheel might have slipped .
 
Sounds to me like the needle on your new carb isn't set right. Or your slide is sticking. If the idle screw won't lower the idle past a certain point. That or jets.
