if the air/fuel idle screw does not change the way it runs at an idle.
you have to pull it apart again and clean all the jets, all the passages, the well that the low jet sits in. it has to come out and be cleaned as well as below that well there is passages.
there are lots of tiny holes that need to be clear. take your time look close. check that you have the rite gasket/washers on the jets that are supposed to have them. rushing through the carb cleaning doesnt work.
you probably don't have to take the throttle plate off.
