It's not actually the arm its the machine screw part of the ball link that is in the throttle arm. However, it appears to still close all the way as is and the high idle/can't kill with trim is a new issue (same ball link).
I was thinking about just buying a new carb for 40 bucks but I figured I'd see what the experts have to say?
Thanks so much,

Double check the travel (throttle butter fly) using the servo. I had the same problem it was my linkage . With the cowling off bring it to idle using the servo then see if you can get the idle lower by closing the the throttle by hand. Might save 40 bucks
