slowing throttle without stalling?

John Deere (1986?) 4.5 hp ohv when you pull the throttle back to slow engine it stalls. What needs adjusted or replaced?

Either set the pilot mixture screw to 1 turn out, or adjust the fast idle screw that controls the tickover speed. If neither of these have any effect, the carburettor needs to be stripped and cleaned.
