Default advice beginner here

hi i have just managed to start my truck yippee after putting whole tank of new fuel in checkin pipes set my high speed needle 3 full turns made sure low speed needle is flush and idle screw primed her up. gave it a pull and she started.The wheels were spinning like mad and it sounded like the engine was going full pelt! so i grabbed the glow starter took it off and it dyed down and shut off.
now i not sure if this means i need to adjust the idle screw or low speed.but also when i turn controller on and then car, the throttle keeps moving and opening up the carb but im not pressing nothing? so it makes it extremly difficult to adjust the idle screw so there is 1mm gap in carb because it keeps moving itself!! could this be why the car was reving like mad when i started it ?
