Also the throttle cables could be sticking due to insufficient slack......or the return cable may be too loose or the spring stretched or missing. If you apply light but firm pressure to the throttle toward the closed position, does the speed drop?
Have a look at the idle adjustment screw and see if the throttle cable "wheel" is actually resting against the stop. If not, try to turn the wheel on the side of the carb by hand. This will tell you if something is sticking or not.
Good luck!
