Why does is it that my ex idles so hight and when i turn the screw counterclockwise it doesnt do anything same for when i turn it clockwise. I think the wire that connects the knob tto the carb is still in tact.

i am having a tough time figuring out what your saying. you turn a screw clockwise and nothing happens? you turn a screw counterclockwise and the idle raises? are you turning the idle adjustmemt, fuel screw, etc??

maybe the wire or whatever it is broke behind the screw or something and isnt actually turning it

Make sure you have some slack in your cable. I had a motorbike that would rev when turned right. The cable ended up too short. Also, take off the black cover on the carb, and make sure it is turning.
