Default RE: Engine starting problems

hmm... this time it started much quicker. I can get the engine to about the 200F. So that´s good. I had set the trim a lil more, so the carb wil open a bit so it wil start easier. Bet when it started it revved pretty high, I scared my ass off... After a couple of seconds it died... But I saw that there were sections in de fuel line where there was no fuel, but just air...

So the second time I set the trim to normal and richened the HSN.. And it was still revving high and died after 5 sec.
The sound wasn´t consistent, like with intervals. Like a ghost applied a bit throttle frequenttly. I´m really scared to blow this engine...
Maybe it already has losed much lifetime and power... I don´t hope so... I just turned 15 a week ago, so i´m just a kid. Can´t afford a engine everyday of the year[] I´m taking a break now... And I screwed the idle screw 1/2 to 3/4 out. please help..
