I am a complete novice to this hobby and am beginning to wish i had purchased brushless models instead of nitro

My troubles are that the sliding carb in my team infinity .18 is acting wierd and reems to be rotating round so that there is no idle gap, The part on the carb where the linkage attatches to the carb rotates clock wise in  i have tried  to move it back so as the carb opening the correct position but after several squeezes of the throttle it moves round clockwise again

Sorry for vagueness i truly am a nube
