Ok so my quad wasnt running and i thought maybe there was dirt in the jets or something of that area so i cleaned out my carb and did all that little stuff and changed spark plug and the oil etc... went to start it up and its racing like i have never heard... Like i have the throttle pinned and whether the choke is on or off it does this and the idle screw doesnt help at all either... Please someone help me i need to fix this problem

The choke may be stuck in the carb housing. I would pull the choke out of the carb and check to see if there is anything blocking it from moving or that the spring is not missing/broken.
