Joey,
If fuel is leaking around the throttle shaft it is likely worn. This may
make it difficult top obtain a consistent idle as a worn throttle shaft
usually leaks vacuum. A vacuum leak will result in faster idle when warm due
to leaning of the air/fuel ratio when idling. It may even whistle (If the
exhaust is quiet enough to hear it) One way of checking is the use propane
around the throttle shaft while running to see if the idle changes. Not sure
how old you are but I would suggest that an adult help out with the propane
test for obvious reasons.
The correction is to replace the throttle shaft plate assembly or the entire
carb.
