Idle Screw Help

The idle screw on my yamaha ovation is all lose, and wont seat..The machine screams when u start it and would drive off if i didnt shut it off. Is this a quick fix or do i need some over hauling? The screw had been seized, and the machines idle was too low, so i tried moving it, and then it just sort of snapped open, but is all flimsy..But the screw wont come out..

Yeah, sounds like surgery is in order. Remove the carb first then see if you can tell where the screw broke.
