Idling rough?

Well,I DID IT!I finally put everything back together which included cleaned out tank, new fuel line, relocated electrical fuel pump,and newly rebuilt carb.After all that not only does my whole brand new house stink like gas but she starts but does not drive well.She was idling good,but after warming up and taking it down the road at 2mph with the pedal all the way down she was shooting black smoke all up in my neighborhood.I know it prably means really rich fuel but where should i start?idle mix screws,throttle linkage,thermostatic choke?When i got the car the choke linkage was off with the top choke always open,can i just leave it like that?novice
