I think stovebolt has a good answer. But, I would check the linkage.

Compressing the spring will give you more top end speed, it don't look too compressed and don't think that's your problem.

Do you have a return spring on the carburetor?

Remove that idle adjustment screw and see what happens.

It's for a different application and not needed.

Also adjust the linkage with a little slack, so it lets the spring close the throttle plate all the way.
