The carb idle passages are clogged and the idle portion is not working. I believe that the timing is off enough just to be a nuisance. The dieseling is probably coming from the hot carbon/soot deposits which are due to the gas air mixture being incorrect. If at all feasible, you first need to substitute the carb with a known working one. Once this area is corrected move on into the other problems is they persist.
