The choke is the one furthest to the outside, the throttle is the one on the inside.

Your question is pretty vague. Need more information.

You did one of two things, either you put your carburetor on backwards or you have the throttle connected to choke.

just looked at your video. Looks like your gas pedal cable is holding the throttle open. That is why when you take the choke off, the engine revs up.

Well tbh I never knew you took it off.


Just a tip for next time,
Always write what you have done with it from stock settings. (Tho you posted a video of it eventually).
Also try to remember if you just changed something recently.

Cool it works again.
