why did you remove the old carb?

Anyway, you might have to source a kick-down linkage from a junkyard. If i remember correctly the kick down linkage should move easily when you manipulate the throttle and shouldn't bind. Maybe the previous owner messed with the linkage to make it work with the carb.
