Idle jet is blocked or has some sh1zzle in it.

Look on the side of the carb for a big brass screw, undo it & then remove the idle jet. Look through it to check its clear.

It could be a lot of things really. Start with the easy things; air leaks/clean out the carb/jets etc.

Mixture screw could be Missing, or badly set up
