Default car out of control!

I recently installed a new steering servo. i had to take off my top end so i also had to take out my throttle servo. I dont recall knocking anything out of adjustment. I took the filter off and looked at the carb opening and it is open just a little bit so I wasnt expecting my car to rev up real high and take off at full speed. I fiddled with the needle point valve to tune it more rich because i thought it may be way to lean But it wasnt. I fiddled with the idle screw and lowered the rpms but my car continues to Rev up extremely high and take off at full speed. I HAVE NO IDLE! what should I do? Any info would be much appreciated

Re-adjust EPA/sub-trim after removing servo links. It almost never fitted the same as before after taking them out.

the carburetor is probably open more than it should be. loosen the collar on the end of the linkage and push the linkage in to FULLY close the carb, and then tighten the collar down. That should fully close the carb.

Check for an air leak. That'll cause it to lean out and rev like that.
