70 - 80 I'll try to get a pic asap but I think that little thing on the carb that the throttle cable pulls is stuck or coroded. To the point of were it can't move

try pb blaster, wd-40 or some sort of lube. then try to stick a screwdriver and attempt to pry it out after you soak it in lube. dont break the throttle switch thing though. do it gently.
