Are you talking about the idle speed screw? (Big long one sticking out of the carb) Or the air screw (little slotted brass screw on the side of the carb)?

sometimes Alan I have seen a small jet type orifice right in the mouth of the carb where the air is sucked in for the mixture screw regulation,,,not sure if your LC has this but they can get a bit blocked with debris from the airbox and need poking clear and blowing through with compressed air. You can see it here right at the bottom of the intake..

When the Airscrew is screwed fully home,  the engine should stumble and conk out,  so its either needing cleaned [ as Airhead says]   ,OR. the pilot jet is too small,

I"v never  seen a worn choke plunger,  they get little use in there lifetime, , slide and needle wear is more common,

Ultrasonic cleaning is not perfect either, compressed air and some fine copper wire (wont hurt the brass or ally) is better.
