The problem that I am having is it Idles really high even with the idles screw backed out all the way, and it just won't launch with the power that I know it has. can some please guide me through it?

Status: offline 		Have you checked to make sure that the slide is not sticking before closing all the way? If your idle screw is backed out all the way and you still get a high idle, you have an air leak somewhere in the engine or fuel line, or your fuel/air mixture is too lean. The air leak will cause the leanness as well as the higher idle. Read this article and watch these two videos to get your engine running right. Follow their advice and you will be well on your way to having a happy engine.
