they have notorious return spring probs, also the venturis(?) or otherwisw known as throats can wear a groove in them where the butterfly sits that will stop it closing all the way.
Your best bet is to try and file/sand out the groove and buy two new butterflys and refit them, also a small bracket with another return spring is a good idea |

check out your cable for wear and like pointed out, your return springs. Otherwise it is most probably a vacuum leak. If you are unable to find the leak rip yer carb off open the choke fully and hold it upside down and into a light to check if your throttly plates are misaligned. Dont forget to empty the fuel bowl 1st! |
